Our complete line of products is designed to reduce cycle time or add value to your precision machining operation. The retractable live center compensates for center variations assuring uniform constant tension. The development of screw machine attachments that provide a synchronized 1:1 ratio with spindle and work piece rotation cut production costs. Shaving dovetail toolholders complete work with less revolutions than end working operations. Rotary broaching is an exclusive, fast, amazing and accurate method of producing internal and external polygon forms on the end of a work piece while the machine spindle is rotating. Whether you need one part or several, Slater Tools is your one stop shop for all of your rotary broaching needs.
