Broetje-Automation is the perfect partner for advanced and specialized drilling processes. Our balanced industrial process not only improves cycle time and speed of production, but also the quality of the drilling. Advanced automated technologies such as layered drilling of various materials and vibration assisted drilling (VAD) are finding their place in the factories of today and tomorrow. To meet the diverse needs of our customers worldwide, our drilling tools expand the portfolio in this segment to include special processes such as the production of hexagonal holes, drilling without internal cooling or long tools for narrow geometries.
Incorporated into various of our systems such as our NC-Machines, the process comes alive and improves the speed, the size of the hole, the quality and last but not least expands the use of different materials.
Smart Drill Hole Positioning
Due to advanced and innovative technology the accurate positioning of drillholes can be managed automatically in the process. The optical reference system is able to skip areas based on visual cues and move to the next drilling position. This makes it easier to monitor the drilling process.
