Boring Tools

The Autofacer from Steiner Technologies Inc. is a tool that allows the machinist to reach through a hole and machine a circular feature on the back side of the part automatically. By circular feature we might mean a spot face, counter bore, countersink, chamfer, spherical radius, or some combination thereof. This is accomplished by folding the cutting blade into the shaft of the tool body allowing the tool to pass into the part.

BIG KAISER offers a mobile app to support boring operations. Leveraging the precision of BIG KAISER tooling through remote real-time information access further improves productivity and control on the factory floor.

Allied Machine & Engineering announces the continued success of Wohlhaupter’s MVS modular connection system. Part of the Multibore collection, the MVS connection is a flexible system designed primarily for drilling and boring, with application possibilities in tapping, endmilling and light shell milling.

The ActiveEdge Nexus from Rigibore includes coarse-adjustment and fine-setting capabilities, in addition to automatic cutting edge compensation in the machine tool. This design is a self-contained module added to flanges.

MAPAL has developed a multi-bladed fine boring tool with guide pads. Thanks to the multiple cutting edges, the cycle time is significantly
reduced compared with single-bladed tools.
