BIG KAISER has developed Dyna Force, a device for measuring the retention force of machine tool spindles. Insufficient retention force of the spindle clamping mechanism could lead to reduced rigidity and vibrations, loss of machining quality, poor surface finish and shortened tool life. By ensuring that the retention force is at the correct level, cutting performance remains consistent, providing high-quality machining results.
"The Dyna Force makes regular measurement of the retention force easy and accurate, preemptively mitigating the risk of machine damage or poor machining quality resulting from a low force on the spindle," said Jack Burley, vice president of sales and engineering.
The lightweight and compact Dyna Force includes a digital display, cable and robust storage case. Dyna Force is available for 30, 40 and 50 cones, with one common digital display for all taper sizes. It is also fully compatible with BIG-PLUS spindles.
