Learn how high-quality boring tools and digital technology improve accuracy, reduce downtime and increase ROI, helping shops overcome common challenges and achieve more consistent machining results.

Using helical interpolation to open holes is common practice. And in shallow holes or one-off projects, it’s a fine choice.

Making a hole with very tight tolerances is often a two-part process. When starting from scratch, a drill is used first to create the hole.

We wrote the book on boring. Truth be told, the book was written a long time ago by Kaiser, and now you can get your own copy.

There may have been a time when good enough was good enough, but in today’s competitive metalworking market, good enough won’t cut it.

As we close out 2020, and our 30th anniversary celebration, we take one last look back at BIG DAISHOWA’s role in the evolution of boring tools.

Learn five key factors to consider when selecting boring tools to improve performance, reduce costs and ensure part quality.

In an effort to capitalize on the success of Steven Covey’s bestseller, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, we thought we could do Mr. Covey one better with the 8 Habits of Highly Effective Boring.

Boring tool performance depends greatly on the Length-to-Diameter (L:D) Ratio of the application. While this is a straightforward calculation, the Length and Diameter values to be used may not be that clear.

With thousands of part numbers to choose from, product selection can be a bit overwhelming. Take a look at some overlooked products and services that can help guarantee higher performance for your shop. 

Use this quick comparison chart to find the small diameter fine boring head that fits your application.

Enhance your machining skills by understanding when to use balanced cutting for precise straight holes and stepped cutting for efficient heavy cuts—ensuring smarter tool choices and project success.

To realize new efficiencies and make things easier for end users, the name of the modular boring system connection was changed to be more in line with global standards.

Discover how the right tool holder solved serious cutting challenges from reducing runout and streamlining operations to enabling efficiency and boosting part quality.

Machining at higher speeds can save time and money, however, increasing the speed also means increasing the inherent risk in the situation. To maximize speed potential, a holistic approach that considers tool, holder, machine and operator is essential.
