Valuable information on a new standard for balancing tools and tool systems that apply to today’s relevant variables for safe and productive machining.

This topic is important as toolholders provide the critical connection between a machine spindle and the cutting tool.

Have you had a chance to read our recent article that appears in the Fabricating & Metalworking Magazine? Alan Miller, informs readers about different ways to absorb synchronization error.

BIG KAISER’s Mega New Baby Chuck has been delivering extreme precision for more than 20 years and is now available with up to ø1″ clamping for drills, reamers and finishing end mills with .00004″ runout accuracy.

At the BIG Daishowa Mega Technical Center in Japan, we’re able to test very specific cutting conditions in precision-controlled environments.

Jack Burley, VP of Sales and Engineering at BIG KAISER shared his knowledge to Fabricating & Metalworking magazine for options targeted to make positive impacts on vibration without breaking the bank.

Vibration in a turning operation can be maddening. It leads to results that can be oh so close, yet so far away. It’s difficult to diagnose the cause.

You’ve heard the saying a million times, “A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.” In metalworking, the chain is a complex one, made up varying components from tiny cutting inserts to the spindle housing.

While more and more shops begin performing micromachining, cut specifications get smaller and smaller.

It’s a good sign when a customer asks a shop to ramp up production of a current part. It means more revenue. It’s validation of the work that’s been done.
