Monday, May 13
Topic: Workpiece Stabilization and Non-Traditional Fixturing for Machining, Welding and Other Processes

Fixturing requirements are becoming more complex as workpiece complexity increases. We will look at how parts that have traditionally posed workholding challenges are being held rigidly and securely with modern-day solutions.

Tuesday, May 14
Topic: Making the Switch from Negative to Positive Tool Offsets

Learn how setting up tools outside the machine optimizes spindle time and reduces the chance of human error. Understand the difference between negative to positive tool offsets, why it’s important, and how it saves time and reduces the burden on operators.

Wednesday, May 15
Topic: Closing the Loop on Automatic Boring

Today’s machine operators are relying more and more on digital equipment to help produce parts. Discover the advantages of automatic boring vs. manual boring processes, breakthrough technologies aiding automatic processes and learn to pick the right applications for closed-loop boring. We’ll also unveil details on Big Kaiser’s EWA program.

Thursday, May 16
Topic: Anti-Vibration Technology

Vibration and chatter due to long reach tooling cause lost productivity and is harmful to the health of machine and spindle. Dampened tooling systems can be the cure.

Big Kaiser’s doors will be open all day long for visitors.
