The Tool Pro is a unique tool holding fixture developed by BIG DAISHOWA for the assembly and disassembly of your tooling systems. The adapter of the Tool Pro can rotate 360º and lock in 45º increments.

While we specialize in holders, we do offer some specialized cutters with these materials and often get questions about PCD and CBN inserts. Here we tackle some of the most frequently asked questions.

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 we close out 2020, and our 30th anniversary celebration, we take one last look back at BIG DAISHOWA’s role in the evolution of boring tools.

Jack Burley, president and COO of BIG DAISHOWA, shares some of his observations over the years, predictions for the industry and his vision for the company.

In order to easily compare our line-up of products, we’ve pulled together a helpful graphic that displays the features and functions of each product.

Many factors may go into the decision to invest in a presetter such as tool budget, accuracy needs or delivery time. We’ve put together a reference guide.

From a safety standpoint, limiting surface contacts and close interactions are two of the most important steps that can be taken to help prevent the spread of illness. It got us thinking about how our tooling and systems can help maintain a safer environment.

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.

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.

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.

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

Learn how high-quality boring tools and digital technology improve accuracy, reduce downtime and increase ROI, helping shops overcome common challenges and achieve more consistent machining results.
