We fixed a glitch where the condition indicated yellow at the highest RPM when the dial showed red.We have added a TROCHOIDAL milling selection under SETUP. This is for high axial and low radial (10% or less) engagement applications. We have created a new algorithm for these types of tool paths.The ...

This clip makes handling the accelerometer easier while preventing backward mounting and the threaded cable connection from coming loose. It was designed to be light enough not to affect the measurement.Accelerometer ClipInstallation: Make sure the cable it tightly screwed into the accelerometer. Ve...

Large Hammer Tip

This large hammer tip is for use on carbide endmills, especially smaller diameter where targeting a small spot on the endmill is difficult or larger endmills when there ont a smooth even surface to strike. This will prevent double hits and mishits. Don't use this on indexable endmill and face mills....

Assistive Hammer Handle

If you have challenges with physical act of tapping, such as, frequent double hits or difficulty hitting the target, this add-on gandle may be of help.The tap test hammer can present some biomechanical challenges due to the three main nerves controlling the hand, wrist and arm. From on a 2017 study ...

3D Printed Accelerometer Cable Reel

Wrap the magnets into the notches and attach together in the back. Wind the cable around the two reels (f...

Hammer Cable Management

We are starting to see increased incidents of hammer cable failures. We have tried dozens of cable reels for the hammer cable. The cable is very stiff and has significant memory making it very prone to tangling and challenging to wind. If the cable is not carefully untangled and pulled on it can cau...

Tap Testing 45 Degree Lead Milling Cutters

UPDATE: If you enter 45 degree as the lead angle in the tool details, the cutting stiffness of the workpiece material will adjust automatically.When tap-testing indexable endmill or face mills with a 45 degree lead, select the Special 45 Lead material database from the drop down BEFORE selecting a m...

Tap Testing High Feed Cutters

UPDATE: If you enter a lead angle less than 90 degrees in the tool details, the cutting stiffness of the workpiece material will adjust automatically.When tap testing high feed cutters, select the Special High Feed material database from the drop down menu BEFORE choosing a material.
