New tooling solutions inmicro-machining

BIG Daishowa Seiki's Air Power Spindle provides solutions to micro machining with ultra high speed and precision. The Air Power Spindle offers maximum spindle speeds of 80,000 RPM. The spindle is an air-driven tool that can be used on existing machining centers to provide extended tool life, and reduced wear on high speed spindles. Used as an additional spindle on a normal machining center, the Air Power Spindle eliminates the need for a high-speed machine. The new product reduces thermal displacement in the Z-axis for top precision. Combined with the high-accuracy Mega Micro collet chuck series, the Air Power Spindle delivers dynamic run-out accuracy of less than .002mm, even at 80,000 RPM. The spindle produces very low vibration by dynamic balance and low noise design (less than 65 dB). The Air Power Spindle is available in CAT40, BT40 and HSKA63.
