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.

When using a mechanical milling chuck that implements a needle bearing cage the correct clamping position will vary.

Did you know we have a stand-alone catalog containing 14 precision micro end mill geometries?

Proper clamping techniques will ensure the proper operation of all mechanical milling chucks.

Overall gripping strength increases as you increase the size of your tool holders (when looking at the same type of holder).

Hydraulic chucks are an excellent choice for high accuracy applications due to their ability to maintain runout accuracy over an extended period of time.

Adjusting screws are not just a simple set screw. They are a screw with a purpose—three actually.

The is no general rule to cutting tool shank insertion as a multiplier for shank diameter. All tool holder types have different requirements.

To ensure reliable performance, find out how often should you lubricate your fine boring head.

Sometimes our customers see our tool holder catalog numbers and ask us, "What is BBT and BCV?" Great question!

As cutting tool diameters get smaller, the acceptable amount of runout must decrease substantially.

Insert holders on most Series 310 boring heads can be mounted upside down to perform precision back boring operations.

When it comes to boring operations, learn when to use a ground chip-breaker vs. a molded chip-breaker.

Even among experienced machinists, choosing the right insert for boring a hole remains a difficult process that is fraught with myth and misconception. However, it is no myth that insert selection can completely save or kill performance on an application.
