Pullout is a major issue facing manufacturers using milling chucks, especially when machining heat-resistant super alloys (HRSA) like titanium or inconel
No matter what, a new machine represents a significant cost in a manufacturing project. This investment can be compromised if it is not tooled up properly.
Machine shops of all shapes and sizes are facing more pressure than ever. While its primary purpose has traditionally been tool setup, tool presetters serve as both important tools and information hubs on the floor as technology advances.
With state-of-the-art toolholding technology, Jorge Rucoba’s machine shop doubled its process indicators and gained competitiveness in the Mexican mold market.
Exciting improvements in automation are already on their way—higher productivity, increased safety, greater throughput and less scrap. Tool digitalization provides opportunities for production improvements, like our EWE digital fine boring tool. It displays the actual diameter of a tool, makes adjustments much simpler and faster, and reduces human error.
