Manufacturing miniature parts and features is not new. In the past, EDM and laser technologies were used to create these features. Although these technologies worked for low volume jobs, they are not practical for the high volume micro applications that are in demand today.

Exciting improvements in automation are already on their way—higher productivity, increased safety, greater throughput and less scrap. Tool digitalization provides opportunities for production improvements, like our EWE digital fine boring tool. It displays the actual diameter of a tool, makes adjustments much simpler and faster, and reduces human error.

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.

We wrote the book on boring. Truth be told, the book was written a long time ago by Kaiser, and now you can get your own copy.

Runout is one of the sneakier issues machinists and tool managers must deal with. It’s almost impossible to recognize in-process and difficult to diagnose after the fact. We identify potential sources.

High-speed machining can dramatically boost productivity if your tooling and machine setups are up to the task.

What’s a good sign that a company is doing well and that they are constantly seeking better ways to serve their customers? The need to construct new facilities, of course.

Moldmakers hoping to avoid problems such as chatter, poor tool life and molds that fail quality control muster need to consider a variety of factors when selecting a long-reach toolholder.

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

For manufacturers using milling chucks, pullout is a major issue, particularly when machining HRSA’s such as titanium or inconel.

BIG KAISER is BIG in supporting education. Nowadays, you hear so much in the manufacturing community that there are fewer students able to work in manufacturing as a result of lacking in skills.
