Workholding plays a critical role in the metalworking equipment equation. Chuck condition is becoming even more important in multi-axis machining where additional angles and motion can amplify problems.

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

To realize new efficiencies and make things easier for end users, the name of the modular boring system connection was changed to be more in line with global standards.

Whether it’s your first presetter or your tenth, each is an important purchase decision. From choosing the right equipment to getting the team up to speed, we pledge to be your partner every step of the way.

Valuable information on a new standard for balancing tools and tool systems that apply to today’s relevant variables for safe and productive machining.

In a recently published article in Manufacturing Engineering, BIG KAISER contributes to the conversations of the evolution of five-axis machines.

There are many advantages to turning (pun intended) to an underutilized operation that virtually every machining center is capable of: OD turning — otherwise known as “outer diameter turning”, “pin turning”, or “boss milling”.

In an effort to capitalize on the success of Steven Covey’s bestseller, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, we thought we could do Mr. Covey one better with the 8 Habits of Highly Effective Boring.

Hello fans of the two-stroke motorcycles. Thanks to Keanu Reeves and Arch Motorcycle Company, Americans now have the opportunity to get their hands-on Suter motorcycles.

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

Some exciting news recently swept through the halls here at BIG KAISER; we’re proud to share that our fearless leader, President and CEO, Chris Kaiser, received the 2016 Distinguished Service Award from the National Tooling & Machining Association (NTMA).

We’re highlighting yet another new product this week that makes high performance and precision easier.

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.

ID boring is a common and time-consuming operation on CNC lathes. Common issues have led to the development of world-class boring tools—traditionally used on milling machines—that have proven to be just as effective on a CNC lathe.

If your work demands accuracy or you are looking to give your 5-axis capabilities a boost, hydraulic chucks are worth considering.
