BIG DAISHOWA introduces the Perfect Jet Collet, designed to optimize coolant supply in high-speed operations, resulting in better coolant delivery and the option to seal the collet for coolant-through tools.
When used together with a machine that delivers on speed and accuracy, ChipFan and T-Slot Clean help machines reach maximum levels of productivity—even during downtime.
TAG90 center-through coolant angle heads deliver coolant directly from the machine spindle to the cutting edge, without passing through the stop block.
Runout is one of the sneakier issues machinists and tool managers must deal with. It’s almost impossible to recognize in-process and difficult to diagnose after the fact. We identify potential sources.
Cheater bars are appropriately named, especially when it comes to tightening tool holders. We see the common pipes that are often added to the end of wrenches to achieve more torque in customers’ shops all the time. And while these makeshift wrenches may make tightening or loosening holders easier, the damage they can cause is often overlooked.
When it comes to securely and accurately situating material on a machine table, there’s often more than one way to get the job done. With that in mind, consider these fundamental factors before purchasing new workholding.
To achieve efficient tool life, proper finish and productivity in high-speed work, tool holders need to be as rigid, compact and short as possible to keep the whole assembly stable. Here's what you need to know when choosing a high-speed tool holder.
When one variable can make an impact on the result, as in metalworking, it’s a good idea to eliminate as many as possible. Each BIG DAISHOWA part is built to fit precisely and work specifically within each finished product.
Understanding and controlling runout is crucial for any machine shop looking to maintain competitive advantages in today's precision-driven manufacturing environment.
