TOOLING UP: From Holder to Cutter: Inside HAIMER’s Full Tooling Assembly [S5 ep. #14]

HAIMER full tooling assembly solutions take a system-level approach to machining, aligning holders, cutting tools, and programming strategies to improve accuracy, extend tool life, and increase productivity. In this episode of Tooling Up, host Toni Neary welcomes back Brendt Holden, President and CEO of HAIMER USA, for a deep dive into why tooling performance depends on the entire assembly, not individual components in isolation. While HAIMER is widely known for precision tool holders and shrink-fit technology, this conversation expands the story to include cutting tools engineered to work as part of a fully optimized system.

The discussion also explores HAIMER’s solid carbide end mills — the HAIMER Mill and Panther Mill — and how their complementary designs support high-efficiency machining across a wide range of materials. The episode highlights how pairing these cutting tools with HAIMER’s Hybrid Shrink Fit Chuck (the industry’s first active vibration-dampening shrink-fit holder) can unlock dramatic performance gains. Drawing from real production experience inside HAIMER’s own manufacturing facility, Brendt shares an example where optimizing the full tooling assembly and CAM strategy resulted in a 57% reduction in cycle time, using a smaller tool with improved surface finish. Viewers will come away with a clear understanding of how adopting a full tooling assembly mindset, supported by modern CAM techniques and expert guidance from MSC Metalworking Specialists, can help shops improve consistency, accuracy, and throughput without unnecessary complexity.
