Unilock

Small efficiency advantages multiplied over many cycles can have dramatic impacts on the bottom line, so it’s important to seek creative approaches.

NASCAR teams are very meticulous in what they do – always on the lookout for ways to be more productive in their machining processes to improve their cars.

In an article published this month in Shop Metalworking Technology magazine, John Zaya, our workholding ​​​​​​​product manager, discusses the introduction of zero-point workholding like Unilock to the shop floor.

While most can’t invest in transformative capital equipment without months of planning and of course extensive cost, workholding is a different story.

In the most recent “Depth of Cut”, a monthly column written by BIG KAISER experts for Fabricating & Metalworking magazine, Unilock product manager, John Zaya suggests to the metalworking community that it’s time we start changing how we think about workholding.

The way we machine parts has changed significantly over the years. Now it’s time to change how we think about workholding too.

Realize the benefits of the quick change system faster than ever with the new installation and instruction manual.

We hear all the time how so many of our customers rely on the Unilock 138 series round workholding chuck for its mid-size diameter and adaptability to custom fixture designs.

As part of a continued effort to fully serve users throughout the long lifetimes of their BIG Kaiser products, we’ve made it faster, easier and more cost effective to have some popular products repaired and properly maintained.

Reduced setup and changeover costs are among the many benefits of using a zero-point workholding system.
