Big Daishowa Enhances Boring Tools With Vibration Damping
Smart Damper technology shortens the distance from the damping mechanism to the cutting edge, which is the source of vibration.
Big Daishowa has expanded its lineup of Smart Damper-integrated products to include 318 Large Bore Systems and the CK1, CK2 and CKB3 systems.
The new 318 Smart Damper deep boring system is for fine or rough boring of diameters from 200-320mm (7.87-12.6") and uses the CKB7 connection to adapt to almost any machine. The integration of Smart Damper shortens the distance from the damping mechanism to the cutting edge, which is the source of vibration. This produces higher damping effects to the tool assembly to minimize vibration and achieve better surface finishes and improved metal removal rates. According to Big Daishowa, the 318 Series’ low weight and secure configuration make it well suited to high-speed operations (up to 6,600 SFM).
Smart Damper SW Heads offer boring efficiency 6X higher, twice the cutting depth and 3X the cutting conditions of other rough boring heads. Now, the new Smart Damper SW head for the CK1, CK2 and CKB3 makes the CK modular precision tool system available for the full range of SW products. This makes SW heads more versatile than ever before — and boosts the stability of CK-compatible connections.
Big Daishowa designed its Smart Damper technology to make boring quieter, more efficient and vibration free.
