Hi-Jet Holder TG Collet Type tool holder is capable of supplying coolant through or around the tool. Reduced heat generation greatly extends tool life.
For many shops setup may be the silent time killer. Shaving just 15 minutes off each setup can add up to tens of thousands of dollars in savings. But where to start?
Shops are leaving more than 30 percent of potential cutting tool life on the table by using poor-quality tool holders. With carbide costs rising, few shops can afford the waste. Learn how better tool holding improves tool life and reduces costs.
Micromachining, cutting where the volume of chips produced with each tool path is very small, is not a high-speed operation in relation to chip load per tooth. Rather, it involves a high spindle speed due to cutter diameter. The part may be physically larger, but details of the part require ultra-small profiles achieved only by micromachining. In other words, micromachining is not limited in scope to only miniature parts.
Presetters have evolved. Powerful PC-based, touchscreen controls can connect to other important components and systems across an entire metalworking business. This connectivity allows for the fast, accurate exchange of data.
BIG DAISHOWA has released two smaller sizes of the EWN Smart Damper precision boring heads, which eliminate vibration in deep-hole finish boring with a patented damping system.
As a raw material, tungsten carbide is a limited natural resource and a widely popular tool material due to its hardness and heat resistance. We can both save money by reducing the consumption of carbide and help our environment by fully utilizing every tool before recycling the rest.
