Rigibore® Inc / About Us / The Future Today
The Future Today
Building on many years at the cutting edge of boring technology, Rigibore®’s emphasis today lies firmly at the high-tech end of the tooling spectrum.
Already a pioneer in revolutionising the design process for special tools with our automated Rigibore Advanced Design System (RADS ™), our focus is now shifting to revolutionising the tools themselves: this is most prominently exemplified by Smartbore ™ and ActiveEdge ™.
- RADS ™: delivering a superior, fast-track service in the design and manufacture of special tools
- ActiveEdge ™: sub-micron accurate, hands-free, self-adjusting, self-gauging/calibrating tool solution
- Smartbore ™: delivering a remote, sub-micron accurate digital read-out for precision adjustment to the tool-edge
Beyond our substantial presence here in the US, Rigibore® is a truly global operator with an established international distribution network in the majority of major manufacturing countries.
As well as producing individual tools for our customers, we also work with external machine tool manufacturers to produce major turn-key packages. In addition, we are preparing to market our
ActiveEdge ™ and Smartbore ™ technology for use under licence.
Logistically, we are currently taking a significant step forwards in terms of expanding our manufacturing capabilities. This will allow us to take over a number of existing and new commitments from our sister operation in Europe, Rigibore® Ltd.
