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

The Speroni MAGIS benchtop tool presetter is now available in a CNC version for operator-independent measuring results.

In 1948, the 25-year-old Heinz Kaiser decided to give up his permanent job and start his own business near Zurich, Switzerland. His vision was to advance the development of high-quality tools needed to keep pace with the increasing productivity of machine tool technology at that time.

BIG KAISER has won the Global Industry Award 2020 in the production performance category for its EWA, a fully automatic fine boring tool.

In order to take full advantage of a machine tool's capabilities, you must have the tooling to unlock a machine’s full capability. Here is some advice for making the most of a new machine tool with the right tooling.

Boring tools with a digital readout aren’t the standard in U.S. shops, but their use is growing.

When setting up a tapping operation with a collet chuck, consider a new tap holder designed specifically to mitigate the load imposed on the tap by essentially absorbing synchronization error.

Deep hole boring comes with challenges created by the inevitable deflection that occurs when trying to finish a hole of a substantial depth. Various factors determine the best approach to solving the issue, and it’s important to consider all factors before choosing a solution for your boring needs.

Keeping pace with modern manufacturing demands often means bridging the gap between design and production. Creative and resourceful applications of tooling and accessories, such as angle heads, can get complex parts out the door.

Just in time (JIT) manufacturing, by nature, increases setups and shrinks batch sizes. This puts shops in a bind, because more setups and smaller batches are typically less profitable; but saying "no" to work can be even more painful. The burden to search out creative ways to reduce cycle and setup time in order to realize a profit falls to the shops that commonly perform JIT work and on the shops that can’t afford to turn it down when the opportunity arises.

BIG KAISER introduces its ER Collet Chuck, the first common industry collet chuck available with the BIG-PLUS interface.

Charlie Mitchell of Andretti Autosport saw BIG KAISER’s Unilock pallets could help him reduce setup time on where quick turnaround is essential.

Lead angles close to 90° more effectively combat potentially damaging chatter and vibration because they apply the least amount of radial pressure.

Why pull studs are under more pressure than ever before.

In the precision, no-room-for-error world of aerospace, manufacturers need sophisticated tool presetting like airplanes need wings.
