On any machine in good condition, shaving will produce diameters which are round, and on size within +/- .0005.Contours can be produced which otherwise would be possible only by tracing. By its nature, shaving can almost always be completed in less revolutions than an end-working operation; hence shaving seldom is the limiter on cycle time. Shaving also has its built-in diameter controls; it does not rely on exact cross slide stroke length for accuracy, and to a certain extent, it can compensate for index or spindle errors. If holders, and the machines, are in good condition, and if properly designed, correctly ground tools are used at appropriate feeds and speeds, shaving gives minimum trouble. Slater's Shaving Dovetail Tool Holders pioneered in providing several advantages to increase multi-spindle screw machine production. Slater shave tool holders give smooth finishes and uniform diameters.Slater Tools offers Shaving Tool Holders, Shaving Tool Blanks, Shaving Roll Rests and other accessories for various type machines.
