Celebrating 50 years of Wohlhaupter’s MultiBore

Allied Machine and Engineering, a leading manufacturer of holemaking and finishing cutting tools for the metal cutting industry, celebrates 50 years of Wohlhaupter’s MultiBore, the world’s first modular boring system.

Buy tools, support schools

For the second year in a row, customers that purchase Big Daishowa cutting tools, toolholders and workholding products will support local manufacturing training programs at the same time.

ES-Bore (Easy Set Bore)

ES-Bore Series Mounts to Custom Designed Boring Tools

The cartridges provides the possibility to design custom tools incorporating the ES-Bore lay down cartridges, allowing customers to receive special tools within a shorter delivery time and at a lower cost. Additionally, the release of the new fine boring cartridges gives customers the opportunity to build their own special tool because the customer only needs an ES-Bore lay down cartridge that can be mounted onto the boring bar being manufactured.

Wohlhaupter 3ETECH+ (3ETECH Plus)

Enhanced 3ETECH+ Digital Readout Module for Wohlhaupter 3ETECH Boring Tools

The 3ETECH+ provides improved diameter adjustment accuracy of one micron, making it the ideal choice for customers who need to hold precision hole tolerances on expensive parts. High-production environments such as aerospace, heavy equipment and automotive also greatly benefit from the enhanced digital readout module to be used on Wohlhaupter digital boring tools including VarioBore versatile boring head, 420 (410) series boring heads, 465 (464) series balanced boring heads, 538 (537) fine boring cassettes, custom boring solutions and the newest Wohlhaupter product, the ES-Bore series of fine boring laydown cartridges.

Big Daishowa brings new products to trade show

Big Daishowa will exhibit at Eastec at the Eastern States Exposition (Booth 5252) in West Springfield, Mass., May 16-18.

Getting the most out of your boring tools

Fine boring, rough machining, large-diameter boring — no matter the type of application, it is key to get the most from boring tools. Hole-finishing applications, whether at a job shop or a high-production environment, require precision. Here are ways to get the most out of your boring tools.

TinyMiniTurn

The CBN-tipped mini boring bars feature BX310 uncoated CBN grade that increases the grade’s wear resistance when used at low to medium cutting speeds, making it perfect for machining small bores from as small as 2.8 millimeter (.110 inch) diameter of hardened steel parts.

Big Daishowa and its customers give back to local schools

Big Daishowa issued nearly $30,000 in tooling certificates to high schools, vocational schools, colleges and universities through its Tools for Schools program.
