BIG KAISER introduces the Lollipop from Sphinx, the newest addition to its endmill cutter lineup. The Lollipop from Sphinx is for machining undercuts, deburring and multiple-axis machining.
Lollipop cutters, also known as undercutting endmills, can be useful for certain situations. Undercuts are commonly known to be difficult to machine with a standard endmill, especially on 3-axis machines. The Lollipop from Sphinx can be used in 3-axis and 5-axis applications, although 5-axis applications are more common due to the operator’s ability to rotate and index the tool for any given reason.
Deburring parts by hand is an inefficient process. By using the Lollipop from Sphinx, shops will see cost and time savings. This endmill also provides a great surface finish due to its edge-breaking capabilities – a critical final step to create a part that looks and feels like a finished product and is safe to handle.
The undercutting angle used in most operations is between 220° and 300°, and the corresponding angle for the Lollipop from Sphinx is 270°. Although frequently associated with a singular use, lollipop cutters are versatile tools for a variety of shop-floor operations.
Milling cutter held by its shank that cuts on its periphery and, if so configured, on its free end. Takes a variety of shapes (single- and double-end, roughing, ballnose and cup-end) and sizes (stub, medium, long and extra-long). Also comes with differing numbers of flutes.
BIG KAISER says its hydraulic chucks for Swiss-type lathes are the first improvement to this technology in more than 30 years. These toolholders use a single wrench, which makes for a quick and easy change of the cutting tools on a gang slide.
BIG KAISER introduces two versions of the C-Centering Cutter, a multifunction cutter capable of spot drilling, centering and chamfering. The C-Centering Cutter is an indexable cutter that uses a specialized insert that can start a hole from a solid piece, something extremely difficult to do. It can…
BIG KAISER presents the Torque Fit, a tightening fixture for collet chucks with an integrated torque measuring system. This device makes it easy to ensure that a collet chuck is correctly tightened.
BIG KAISER Precision Tooling Inc. has added the Dyna Contact to its product offering. The ceramic taper gage allows inspection of machine spindle tapers at a glance.
BIG KAISER announced its new Level Master Wireless, a high-precision device for the leveling of machine tool tables. The Level Master Wireless adds wireless connectivity to enable leveling information to be read from a separate display device, making it easier to ensure that a precision level is…
BIG KAISER’s UNIFLEX system is a 3D zero-point clamping system designed to allow parts with curved surfaces to be held rigidly for various operations and be adjusted to different height requirements. The UNIFLEX system is available in two diameters: 25.4mm and 50mm.
The precision and ruggedness of BIG KAISER boring heads deliver measurable performance advantages, significantly reducing finishing cost and cycle time. This is proven through the development of the EWE digital boring head.
BIG KAISER announces its HDC Straight Shank holder to the market, used for increased versatility. The slim design provides superior balance, concentricity and is suitable for reaching into confined areas.
BIG KAISER introduces the Base Master Red, a high-precision touch sensor that rapidly determines workpiece offsets and tool lengths, and the Base Master Mini, a thin, compact tool offset sensor.
BIG KAISER has introduced the R-Cutter CKB Type, a new modular round chamfering tool. The R-Cutter CKB3 and CKB5 is an ultrahigh-feed front and back radius chamfering mill, which features high rake angles that reduce cutting resistance and minimize burr generation.
