Anyone who’s made holes understands the difficulties that can arise: vibration, wander and even breakage. When it comes to production-level volume, these issues become even more limiting. Many turn to helical interpolation with a mill as a reliable way to rough out holes. We’re here to tell you there’s a faster, easier option.
Chattering and deflection have always been the bane of machinists’ existence, so much so that the sight of a long and slender tool holder will immediately cause goosebumps. If you understand why a long tool holder behaves the way it does, you’ll know that there are ways to fight back against this bending.
Enhance your machining skills by understanding when to use balanced cutting for precise straight holes and stepped cutting for efficient heavy cuts—ensuring smarter tool choices and project success.
C Collets are reduction sleeves for clamping smaller diameter cylindrical tool shanks. Used in Hi-Power Milling Chucks and MEGA Double Power Milling Chucks.
New Baby Chuck Type Angle Heads utilize the outstanding rigidity and accuracy of the New Baby Chuck and New Baby Collet, producing high precision with less runout.
HIGH SPINDLE is an innovative gear-driven system that enhances the performance of existing machining centers by multiplying spindle speed 4, 5, or 6 times, improving both drilling and end milling operations.
MEGA MICRO CHUCK is a collet chuck featuring a notch-free nut design that prevents vibration and noise while offering superior balance and concentricity.
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.
With the addition of the Fullcut Radius Mill and the Ball End Mill, the Fullcut Mill Contact Grip series now features four connection sizes and seven cutter types.
The Noventa Chamfering Tool is ideal for 90° front and back chamfering and deburring holes up to 4xd. It improves cycle time, tool life and surface quality.
