Boring bar for lathe applications


Hoffman Estates, IL – As part of a growing offering of turning solutions unveiled at IMTS, BIG KAISER announces the release of the Smart Damper boring bar for lathe applications.

A heavyweight, strengthened damping mechanism integrated into the tool holder functions as both a dynamic counter and friction damper. It instantaneously absorbs vibration and eliminates chatter helping to achieve higher machining accuracy, better surface finishes and increased metal removal rates for higher productivity at critical machining depths. It’s also designed with the capability of supplying coolant through the body directly to the cutting edge.

The Smart Damper boring bar features three modular insert holders, optimized for right-hand I.D. turning with ISO standard inserts at a minimum diameter of Ø1.580". Metric bodies are available in Ø32 and 40mm, with inch versions at Ø1.250 and 1.500". The general rule of thumb with this system is boring depths are possible at approximately 7xd.
