Fine boring heads provide high-precision finishing options for many applications, however, fine boring can be a delicate operation that can go awry. Check out these troubleshooting tips.
Five-axis roughing can be painstaking. Pairing the right holder with the right cutter can save serious time while cutting and when setting up -- and eliminate those pain points.
When one variable can make an impact on the result, as in metalworking, it’s a good idea to eliminate as many as possible. Each BIG DAISHOWA part is built to fit precisely and work specifically within each finished product.
The return on investment from digital boring comes from the time saved making adjustments on the spindle, as well as the increased adjustment accuracy.
BIG DAISHOWA offers straight collets for clamping smaller diameter cylindrical tool shanks, providing coolant through the tool, or coolant around the periphery.
The Perfect Jet Collet, also known as PJC, is the perfect solution for achieving optimum end milling operations. Utilizing a peripheral coolant supply minimizes the loss of coolant caused by centrifugal forces during spindle rotation.
NTMA members visited BIG Daishowa Seiki in Japan during the association’s 2016 Tech Tour last month. The annual Tech Tour is a special opportunity for NTMA members to learn, network and tour manufacturing facilities outside the U.S.
