Big Daishowa’s Smart Damper rocks the exhibition floor at IMTEX 2015
Japan based Big Daishowa Seiki, a market leader in the manufacturing of tooling, cutting tools, and measuring devices, exhibited its new integrated damping system ‘Smart Damper’ at IMTEX 2015 in Bangalore city.
The Smart Damper is a unique and dynamic damping system which eliminates vibration paving way for higher productivity.
It comes with built-in damping system with its amazing capacity of eliminating poor surface finish, out of tolerance and shorter tool life, thus boosting quality.
This tool incorporates a unique damping mechanism which functions as, both, counter and friction dampers. Its patent-pending counter weight maximizes the effects of the friction damper. The unnecessary and troublesome vibrations are effectively absorbed thereby enabling higher machining accuracy.
There are 2 versions of this tool that are available in the market:
- Integrated damping system CK Boring Holder
- Integrated damping system Face Mill Arbor Type FMH
The CK Boring Holder is highly recommended for efficient deep hole finish boring and higher metal removal rate. The Face Mill Arbor Type FMH increases the desirability-quotient through its admirable versatility. It also maximizes the potential of cutters for the highest productivity.
A standard holder without the damping system has a cycle time of 90 minutes. However, the Smart Damper consumes a staggering 10 minutes only. Therefore, this tool increases the productivity by almost 9 times. A standard holder cuts 0.1mm/Ø and 3 passes are required. Its smaller nose radius of insert acts as an impediment to speed. However, the Smart Damper completes the operation with only 1 pass, and its larger nose radius improves surface finish.
