We Can't Split an Atom but We can Split .0001 of an Inch


For years the industry standard was .0001” adjustment for “Precision Finish Boring” applications. The demand for closer tolerance Finish Bores pushed us to develop our Modular Boring Systems with .00005” (50 Millionths) adjustability. Putting this into perspective you would have to move our dial 60 graduations to equal the thickness of a normal piece of paper. We have accomplished this with a unique moving wedge design so the boring heads do not require a locking mechanism to ensure their accuracy during the cutting operation.




This Micro-Adjusting feature is an option on our Cri-Bore Modular Boring System, CB Boring Heads, Cri-Bar Adjustable Boring Bars and CBER Modular Boring System for ER Collet Holders



The Micro-Adjusting finish boring products have a .006” on diameter range for the micro adjustment. We use our standard .001” on diameter dial for making major diameter adjustments so you save time when making your initial set-up. We look forward to working with you on any of your Precision Finish Boring Applications.
