BIG Kaiser digital boring heads with wireless connectivity offer user benefits

A new generation of BIG Kaiser digital boring heads with wireless connectivity is now available from Industrial Tooling Corporation (ITC).

Recently receiving a world premiere at the EMO Exhibition, the new EWE connects to BIG Kaiser’s user-friendly Smartphone and tablet app to make it easier to monitor and configure the head while assembling and running boring tools. The innovative app helps operators determine optimal cutting parameters for their tool assemblies and it also displays changes in cutting diameters.

BIG Kaiser has applied for two patents for the new system: one is the RF antenna that radiates through the display, the other for battery positioning that simplifies replacement.

Says Giampaolo Roccatello, VP sales at BIG Kaiser: “BIG Kaiser is at the leading edge of applying latest technology to machining. The EWE and the app demonstrate how new mobile and wireless developments can provide practical benefits to customers.”
