ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL—A new BIG PLUS simultaneous dual contact Shrink Fit tool holder line is now offered exclusively by BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling, Inc. Shrink Fit tool holders offer high clamping forces, low runout, and a small nose diameter to reduce clearance issues.

BIG Kaiser manufactures these holders to the highest standards with the highest quality materials. This enables us to guarantee exceptional runout, without sacrificing clamping force. Available in inch sizes from ¼” to 1” in CAT40 and ½” to 1.25” in CAT50 tapers.

Simultaneous spindle and flange contact greatly enhances rigidity and repeatability, which yields many benefits in higher metal removal rates, higher accuracy, improved surface finish, and extended tool life. It will also minimize vibration to prevent fretting corrosion; eliminate axial movement during high speed operation; and resist cutter deflection, improving accuracy and finish.

BIG PLUS dual contact assures the highest precision location of the tool holder in the spindle when using Automatic Tool Change (ATC) for loading tools, positioning the tool holder within 1 micron (0.00004") for repeatability.

In addition to its direct factory support, BIG Kaiser’s North American Sales Network also consists of 32 factory trained independent manufacturers representatives and over 350 distributor sales organizations, to support products that are engineered to exacting standards and manufactured with materials and craftsmanship that enable superior performance.

BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling is a leader in high precision tooling systems and solutions. With brands including Kaiser, BIG Daishowa, Speroni, Unilock, Sphinx, and more, BIG Kaiser’s line is focused on extreme accuracy and repeatability. BIG Kaiser’s mission is to support North American manufacturers with products that are designed and manufactured to a superior standard. Guaranteed.
