AUTOMATIC FINE BORING
TABLET CONTROL Standalone tool, controlled manually with a tablet via wireless connection.
Semi-Automatic Process This solution represents the lowest level of integration. The fine boring head needs to be connected with an App running on a tablet or smartphone. The EWA can be used on machines with BT/BBT30-40-50, CV/BCV(SK)40-50, BIG CAPTO 5-6-8 and HSK-A63-80-100-125. The boring head will be automatically adjusted according to the information the operator inputs into the BIG KAISER App. Manual Measuring Once a bore is produced with the EWA, the operator can stop the boring cycle and measure the actual bore size with a precision bore gage or an in-process tactile probe, and input the correction into the tablet. The EWA will self-adjust to the correct value. It is recommended to repeat the measurement after the final boring cut to approve the correct target diameter. Machine with Measuring Probe The measuring probe is used for the bore measurement and integrated in the machine control. It is necessary to program the machining cycle to prevent dimensional failures. The machining program will stop the boring cycle in the event of an out-of-tolerance bore and display an error message alerting the machine tool operator to make the required adjustment with the tablet.
