Unlock better machining results with the right tool holders. Learn how design, selection and maintenance impact accuracy, tool life and overall performance.

Charlie Mitchell, machinist for Andretti Autosport, spent up to eight hours setting up his five-axis machine with 10 tools to run 30 to 40 different processes on a part. Using UNILOCK pallets, set-ups times are 70 to 80 percent shorter.

BIG DAISHOWA’s tool measuring systems are reliable, efficient and now portable, with the release of the Dyna Line Portable.

Because of the popularity of BIG-PLUS, many tooling companies, without a proper license, offer what they call dual-contact tooling. But not all dual-contact is the same. Let’s tackle a few of the most common misconceptions.

When it comes to dialing in an ER system’s performance to match a specific application’s requirements or long life, there are three components to consider: the collet, the body of the holder and the nut.

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.

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.

Nowhere else is the concept of cost-efficiency more intensely analyzed than in the cut-throat world of manufacturing, and for good reason.

Maintenance is really important and kind of a pain. When it comes to all-important spindle maintenance, you can avoid the pain by using simple tools and devices.

Understanding the mechanical behavior of each interface is critical when selecting the right spindle and tooling for milling applications.

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

Take the guesswork out of choosing tool holders and start getting results today.

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.

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.

Insufficient retention force of the spindle clamping mechanism could lead to reduced rigidity and vibrations, loss of machining quality, poor surface finish and shortened tool life. To help solve this problem, we have developed Dyna Force, a device for measuring the retention force of machine tool spindles.
