ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL—A new “Profit Maker Tools” catalog featuring complete specifications for BIG Angle Heads, High Spindle and Hi-Jet Holder is now available from BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc.

The 24-page, full-color catalog is organized into three sections that provide extensive usage information on each tool series. Together, these tools are designed to enhance manufacturer efficiencies, lower costs and increase profits.

Angle Heads combine vertical, horizontal and angular operations on one machine, improving runout accuracy and eliminating the potential for error created by multiple set-ups. They increase productivity by easily changing the angle of the cutter without repositioning the workpiece. The catalog details:

· Universal Type Angle Heads (AGU series), offered for machining all angles from 0 to 90 degrees with only one set-up;

· 90 degree (AG90 series) Angle Heads, which offer fixed 90 degree angle in a variety of tapers, lengths and collet capacities (.010" to .787"), using BIG Kaiser’s new high precision New Baby Chuck system;

· Build-Up Type Angle Heads, which can be fitted with a wide range of 35 taper adapters to cover most machining requirements.

The Profit Maker Tools catalog also provides cutting and application data for the High Spindle speed increaser, available for use on machining centers or conventional machines.

By using easy-to-read charts that present essential information such as speed ratio, tool weight and maximum RPM, the catalog illustrates how High Spindle maximizes performance of existing cutting tools by increasing spindle speeds by a factor of up to six times (up to 20,000 RPM), resulting in greater accuracy and superior finish for diameter ranges .059" to .630".

Another section focuses on the redesigned BIG Daishowa Hi-Jet Holder, which provides coolant induction for machining centers without through-spindle coolant at speeds up to 10,000 RPM and pressures up to 290 PSI (20 bar). The catalog presents detailed information on three different Hi-Jet Coolant Feed models with a .118" to 2.0" diameter range, designed to meet increasing demand for high speed operations with carbide cutters.
