Hoffman Estates, IL – BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling is excited to be recognized as an official North American Mori Seiki Qualified Peripherals (MSQP) supplier. BIG Kaiser was awarded with the honor in November at the grand opening of Mori Seiki’s new North American Headquarters and Technical Center in Hoffman Estates, IL.

The MSQP program was created by Mori Seiki as a means of standardizing peripheral equipment to complement their machines. All MSQP products have been strictly selected, tested and approved by Mori Seiki engineers, thus assuring they will work immediately when implemented in the field.

“Each of the products we utilize has a separate advantage. With BIG Kaiser, for every single machine that we provide with a patented BIG-PLUS^® Spindle, their tools will mate up, giving us better rigidity and process, so the customer then gets out of a 40-taper machine the capability of a 50-taper machine,” explains Executive VP of Mori Seiki, Mark Mohr.

BIG Kaiser received MSQP designation for tooling (BIG-PLUS^® and Capto tool holders, Kaiser boring tools and the Profit Maker Series), accessories (CCD Camera, Test Bars and ATC alignment tools), and Speroni tool presetters.

BIG Kaiser’s inclusion in the MSQP program signifies the company’s high standards in quality and performance. “BIG Kaiser is more than just a tooling and accessories supplier; we are a solutions provider,” says BIG Kaiser President and COO, Chris Kaiser. “It’s an honor to be recognized by Mori Seiki for the value that we add.”
