Charlie Mitchell, machinist for Andretti Autosport, spent up to eight hours setting up his five-axis machine with 10 tools to run 30 to 40 different processes on a part. Using UNILOCK pallets, set-ups times are 70 to 80 percent shorter.

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.

We talk a lot about some of the products we offer that handle tooling while they aren’t on the spindle—and for good reason.

Creative applications of tooling and accessories can get complex parts out the door instead of having to lose those parts due to design edits.

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.

At BIG Kaiser we love hearing the stories about how our products provide customers solutions to their most difficult machining challenges.

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.

Insufficient retention force of the spindle clamping mechanism could lead to reduced rigidity and vibrations, loss of machining quality, poor surface finish and shortened tool life. To help solve this problem, we have developed Dyna Force, a device for measuring the retention force of machine tool spindles.

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.

These easy-to-use measuring devices can help protect capital machinery, prevent scrapped parts, and speed setups or programming.

A machine’s spindle is one of the key links in the machining chain. It makes regular inspection and spindle maintenance critical to getting the most out of your equipment and maintain process efficiency.

We break down different styles of small HSK holders available, as well as the suppliers who offer each type.

Thinking of buying shrink-fit holders? Read this before making a decision.

In this business, doing it right the first time is like money in the bank: less scrap, less wasted time, more on-time deliveries, the list goes on and on.

If pictures speak 1,000 words, videos must speak about 10,000. Check out the quick clip below showing our Speroni MAGIC CNC tool presetting system in action.
