Many machine shops lack objective criteria for making toolholder purchasing decisions & most are made by price alone. However they can improve runout significantly by using the right toolholders.

Runout can be fickle, but finding a solution for it can pay significant dividends. How a little wobble can really increase your costs.

As cutting tool manufacturers increase the recommended operating conditions for their products, users achieve the desired result: shorter cycle times on existing machine tools.

A lot of conflicting information has circulated about balancing tools over the years. Let's clear some things up and make life a little easier for you.

BIG DAISHOWA has announced the smallest precision finish boring head on the market—for use on micro-milling machines with high-speed spindles.

Micromachining, cutting where the volume of chips produced with each tool path is very small, is not a high-speed operation in relation to chip load per tooth. Rather, it involves a high spindle speed due to cutter diameter. The part may be physically larger, but details of the part require ultra-small profiles achieved only by micromachining. In other words, micromachining is not limited in scope to only miniature parts.

BIG DAISHOWA introduces the Perfect Jet Collet, designed to optimize coolant supply in high-speed operations, resulting in better coolant delivery and the option to seal the collet for coolant-through tools.

Even though it has been around forever, does the vise have limitations for shops in a competitive marketplace? Do you need to reinvent the wheel to reduce some of its limitations? To evaluate the vise’s viability in today’s manufacturing operations, we need to uncover the most efficient way to apply it.

Keeping pace with modern manufacturing demands often means bridging the gap between design and production. Creative and resourceful applications of tooling and accessories, such as angle heads, can get complex parts out the door.

The flexible, modular Unilock Zero-Point Clamping System, offered by BIG DAISHOWA, is now available in a kit specifically designed for all Haas 160mm platter rotary indexing tables.
