Series 319 SW aluminum heads provide lightweight solutions without sacrificing performance. Combined with the CKN modular connection, they are ideal for long-reach applications where steel tools may exceed ATC weight/moment limits.
Cleanliness is key to achieving good runout control when assembling tool holders. Small particles or oil in a tool holder can cause large runout of the cutting tool, deceasing tool life and performance.
BIG DAISHOWA introduces the Mega Perfect Grip, a simple to handle, heavy-duty milling chuck for heat resistant super alloys (HRSA) that eliminates end mill pullout under heavy torque loads.
Pullout is a major issue facing manufacturers using milling chucks, especially when machining heat-resistant super alloys (HRSA) like titanium or inconel
Boring tool performance depends greatly on the Length-to-Diameter (L:D) Ratio of the application. While this is a straightforward calculation, the Length and Diameter values to be used may not be that clear.
Consistent accuracy is the name of the game when it comes to tool presetters. The best way to ensure you can keep faith in your presetter, just like any other piece of machinery, is to perform regular maintenance.
Dialing in a finishing job can be meticulous, with several measurements, adjustments and discussions taking place. That not only costs time, but those tool touches and interactions introduce some risk inside a shop. Our next boring innovation will help eliminate many of those repeated interactions and extra adjustments.
The lightweight Series 318 Large Diameter Boring System is designed for heavy roughing of bores for diameters up to 24.4"—and a special adapter can extend the system even further.
