Machinery tooling and equipment that get parts produced the fastest is always the best choice, right? But what else needs to be considered when choosing equipment for low- to mid-range production volumes?
Over the last couple of decades, digitization has increasingly crept into our lives. In the metalworking world it’s undeniable. Digital boring heads have emerged as indispensable time-saving and quality-ensuring tools in machine shops.
Ansonia Manufacturing, the only machine shop in the town of Sonoma, California, discovered the EWN2-32ExER32 boring head and used it to complete a tricky hardware component job for a “live” glass art sculpture.
Smart Damper products are designed for deep-hole boring with BIG KAISER’s CKB modular boring system, and also for extended reach milling with both inch- and metric-pilot shell mills and face mills.
