The SPERONI SPI is the newest of BIG DAISHOWA's Industry 4.0 upgrades to its offering of tool presetting solutions. SPI dramatically reduces the time and steps needed to transfer precise and accurate tool measurements to a machine tool.
After researching presetters for eight years—including four trips to IMTS—CEO Ronda Peterson knew it was the time to invest in the next level of efficiency for her shop.
The chances of a tool slipping or pulling out in its holder during work is increasing. Here are some insights to help you select the proper holder for your work.

Tool holders play a critical role in connecting elements maximizing machining performance, however, several different styles are available and the most suitable one will depend on the operation.
CNC machine tool efficiency is all about managing the components that must come together in proper alignment: the machine spindle, toolholder assembly and workspace.
