ActiveEdge - Automatically adjustable boring tools

MAXIMISE OUTPUT. MINIMISE DOWNTIME.

ActiveEdge is Rigibore’s closed-loop boring system that automatically adjusts the cutting edge inside the machine, using measurement data from a gauge or probe to deliver consistent micron-level accuracy, reduced scrap and higher spindle-up time.

Do you have the following problems ? Trial cuts increasing cycle time, operator intervention causing variability and driving scrap and rework.  ActiveEdge removes this bottleneck.

Automating the adjustment process delivers increased productivity, lower production costs & improved operator safety.

ActiveEdge is micron accurate, integrates with the machine control, uses replaceable cartridges to ISO standard, does not require operators to enter the machine to adjust the cutting edge and can be easily maintained with no additional service charges.

Automated, wireless, micron-accurate boring tool adjustments

Real closed-loop boring – automatically adjusts the diameter using in-process measurement and probing.

Micron-level accuracy – Adjustments as fine as 1 micron on diameter.

Reduced scrap & rework – get the correct size on the first cut not the fifth.

Higher spindle-up time – No manual intervention, no machine stops and faster cycle times.

Multi-edge capability for complex bores – Rigibore specialises in combination, custom designed and manufactured boring tools specific to your application.
