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.
There are many advantages to turning (pun intended) to an underutilized operation that virtually every machining center is capable of: OD turning — otherwise known as “outer diameter turning”, “pin turning”, or “boss milling”.
Valuable information on a new standard for balancing tools and tool systems that apply to today’s relevant variables for safe and productive machining.
To realize new efficiencies and make things easier for end users, the name of the modular boring system connection was changed to be more in line with global standards.
In this business, doing it right the first time is like money in the bank: less scrap, less wasted time, more on-time deliveries, the list goes on and on.
While we specialize in holders, we do offer some specialized cutters with these materials and often get questions about PCD and CBN inserts. Here we tackle some of the most frequently asked questions.
There’s a lot to consider when deciding how to tool up a new machine. Committing to a thorough tooling selection upfront is vital. Think about your tooling and machine tool as a symbiotic partnership: what affects one affects the other.
Machining vibration disrupts efficiency, reduces tool life and damages part finishes. Solving it isn’t easy as causes are varied and interconnected. Discover strategies to tackle vibration for better results.
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.
Automated solutions are becoming more and more prominent in the machining industry. BIG DAISHOWA discusses the market’s current state, its latest developments and what it might look like in the future.
One of the most impactful tools in the BIG DAISHOWA suite of products is often overlooked. It’s durable and has all the best features for those looking to save time making hard-to-reach cuts. We’re talking about our AGU30 Universal Type Angle Heads.
