Make in once, Make it right
In precision machining using best practices, appropriate toolpath strategies, and rigid setups often provides close results. To achieve greater results in accuracy and surface finish requires knowing all the specific details.
Are you neglecting to verify the most important detail of all?
The Precise Tool Diameter
Benefits with Tool Gages
1. Identify your out-of-tolerance cutting tools
Phaseout cutting tools that do not meet their nominal four-place decimal size tolerance (example: 1.0000 =✓ vs .9980=X or 1.0015=X)
2. Improve your workpiece quality while preventing waste
Using the precise tool size gives the operator more control when sizing workpiece features
3. Increase efficiency
Reduce running extra machining cycles to achieve the correct sizing. Increase the throughput of your machining processes.
Machine with Precision
"We’re all constantly tasked with shorter lead times and expectations to improve workpiece quality. I've experienced this with over two decades of programming CNC machines and I’m here to help."
– Shawn Lause
As the owner of SL Manufacturing, I wanted more control of high-speed machining toolpaths while also avoiding the repetitive cycling of the same toolpaths to achieve the best finish and sizing. Thus Tool Gages was created.
