The medical industry pushes the limits of precision for machining and tools. The trend toward less-invasive surgery using smaller parts translates to a need to better control the preci­sion and tolerances of micromachining processes.

When high accuracy, long tool life or high-speed capabilities are important, collet chucks are often the holder of choice.

Sometimes our customers see our tool holder catalog numbers and ask us, "What is BBT and BCV?" Great question!

The manufacturing process of boring is enlarging a hole in a piece of metal. Different kinds of boring tools are available for boring operations.

As a raw material, tungsten carbide is a limited natural resource and a widely popular tool material due to its hardness and heat resistance. We can both save money by reducing the consumption of carbide and help our environment by fully utilizing every tool before recycling the rest.

Cheater bars are appropriately named, especially when it comes to tightening tool holders. We see the common pipes that are often added to the end of wrenches to achieve more torque in customers’ shops all the time. And while these makeshift wrenches may make tightening or loosening holders easier, the damage they can cause is often overlooked.

Current travel and visitor restrictions continue to disrupt the normal schedule of service calls to manufacturers. To keep our customers up and running, the BIG KAISER Tool Measuring Solutions Department offers remote maintenance sessions.

The advances in multi-axis machining in recent years have unlocked the creativity of machine shop engineers and operators.

Using helical interpolation to open holes is common practice. And in shallow holes or one-off projects, it’s a fine choice.

Making a hole with very tight tolerances is often a two-part process. When starting from scratch, a drill is used first to create the hole.

There’s more than one way to skin a CAT…or should we say HSK in this case.

BIG DAISHOWA Angle heads allow you to flip the tool instead of the part, eliminating both unnecessary setup time and repositioning errors for a more cost-effective solution for workpieces.

A group of Rolling Meadows high school students enjoyed a front-row seat at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during practice for the upcoming 101st Indianapolis 500.
