BIG KAISER introduces Hydraulic Chucks for Swiss Lathes, the first improvement to this technology in more than 30 years.

Constantly optimizing processes and equipment to achieve an advantage over other race teams, Team Penske adopted tooling improvements based on its decision to expand usage of the BIG-Plus spindle interface and tool holders.

To make their cars as light and aerodynamic as possible, Team Penske’s shop performs delicate work milling aluminum, titanium and steel.

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.

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.

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.

The chances of a tool slipping or pulling out in its holder during work is increasing. Here are some insights to help you select the proper holder for your work.

Every millimeter counts in metalworking. That’s why it’s important to think twice when selecting conventional tool holders like shell mill, end mill and shrink fit holders.

You need to look at a milling machine as a whole system. There are multiple, integral parts that all need to work together.
