Colibri is a compact, small tool that is very well suited for light machining. It is the entry-level model for automated deburring of geometrically deviating contours. The core element of the colibri VW standard tool type is the axially flexible tool spindle.
The axial spindle preload force can be stepless adjusted to the respective conditions. This can be done directly through the collet chuck of the tool spindle using an Allen key, even when the colibri is clamped in machine.
The Colibri VW is the entry-level tool for light forward-cutting operations.
Applications
Milling machines, machining centers, automatic lathes, custom systems, etc. (no additional installations required)
Suitable materials
Light metals and light applications
Benefits
- Elimination of manual deburring
- Improved part quality and shorter cycle times
- High process reliability and stability
- High material removal rate, short deburring time
- Improves workplace safety and minimization of errors
Facts
- Tool spindle flexible in axial direction
- Stepless adjustable force for axial spindle deflection (pressure-acting) to adjust the deburring depth
- Consistent deburring, regardless of lateral geometrical deviations or height differences
- Very short tool length – offers advantages for compact machines with limited space
Accessories
- Deburring cutter: solid carbide; Standard: tapered deburring cutters
- Custom cutters or coated cutters
- Grinding bits & Brushes: for robotic applications and special surfaces
