The way we machine parts has changed significantly over the years. Now it’s time to change how we think about workholding too.

Without the right tool holder, difficult conditions create the perfect storm for chatter, poor tool life and failing quality control molds.

When it comes to aerospace components, the slightest imperfection could be catastrophic. Our experts answer five questions about boring precision holes on aerospace parts.

Machinery tooling and equipment that get parts produced the fastest is always the best choice, right? But what else needs to be considered when choosing equipment for low- to mid-range production volumes?

We’ve built our name on tool holders, boring tools, cutting tools and specialized solutions for the everyday and most demanding machining operations. You may be surprised to learn we have deep expertise in lathe tooling as well. We have to. Lathes are critical to the development and production of our tools.

The further the tool does its work from the spindle, the more room for error. Deep pockets and cavities usually signify that a part is nearing completion, making the smallest of errors almost impossible to recover from and very costly.

BIG DAISHOWA introduces Hydraulic Chucks for Swiss Lathes, the first improvement to this technology in more than 30 years.

Torque Fit, a tightening fixture for collet chucks with an integrated torque measuring system, ensures that a collet chuck is correctly tightened.

Small efficiency advantages multiplied over many cycles can have dramatic impacts on the bottom line, so it’s important to seek creative approaches.

Hydraulic chucks are an excellent choice for high accuracy applications due to their ability to maintain runout accuracy over an extended period of time.

Learn how we’ve adapted our tool holders to meet the coolant demands of modern-day machining.

Here are a few tool and part holding considerations for getting the most out of a mill-turn machine.

Even though it has been around forever, does the vise have limitations for shops in a competitive marketplace? Do you need to reinvent the wheel to reduce some of its limitations? To evaluate the vise’s viability in today’s manufacturing operations, we need to uncover the most efficient way to apply it.

The is no general rule to cutting tool shank insertion as a multiplier for shank diameter. All tool holder types have different requirements.
