Established to meet our own needs
Aarbakke is among the world's leading companies in advanced mechanical manufacturing. Acquiring state of the art equipment for grinding tools was one of the steps Aarbakke took early in the 2000s. We developed expertise in regrinding our own tools and achieved significant cost savings. Eventually, we also started developing and producing special tools for our own operations. Long experience, specialized expertise, creativity, and technologically advanced machines are now at the core of Aarbakke Edge special tool development. This also applies to other businesses areas within machining.
Special Tools
YOUR IDEA - FROM DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE
From design and edge geometry, to coatings, every tool is specifically tailored for you and precisely produced in our facility under stringent quality standards. We can test a multitude of tool features and adapt them to fit your individual machining needs. This ensures that you get a tool perfectly suited to your process conditions. Our experts cater directly to your requirements, this guarantees that you receive the optimal solution that aligns exactly with your tooling needs.
RAPID DELIVERY TIME – YOUR COMPETETIVE EDGE
We can produce special tools within 24 hours. If you have the idea, we can draw, develop, and produce the tool.
YOUR IDEA, YOUR PRODUCT
If you have an idea for a special tool, we draw it in 3D so it can be assessed and quality assured before it is produced. Our experienced team can also contribute to the further development, testing and improvement of existing tools.
ALWAYS URGENT
We know that there are often short deadlines and this has a significant impact on your profitability. Therefore, we offer a production time of 24 hours. And we guarantee the quality. If we make a mistake, you get a new tool free of charge.
GLOBAL REACH
Aarbakke Edge delivers all over the world.
Tool Regrinding
with EdgeRevivePro
LONG LIFETIME, UP TO 50% LOWER COST
Most milling and machining tools can be resharpened up to three times. The resharpening itself only costs 1/3 of a new tool. With EdgeRevivePro this means that tool costs can usually be cut by up to 50%.
FAST DELIVERY
Aarbakke Edge provides all necessary services in resharpening and coating your worn-out tools, our standard is a production start time within 24 hours. From initial individual tool inspection to careful packing ready for return transport – you can expect the fastest possible turnaround.
COMPLETE TOOL MAINTENANCE SOLUTION
Aarbakke Edge makes it as easy as possible for your operators to use our EdgeRevivePro service with our box solution.
This not only ensures cost effectiveness but helps you to avoid production downtime by always having the right tool on hand. Simply pack your worn tools into the box we provide and send to us, we take care of the rest – contact us to order a toolbox free of charge and find out more.
ALWAYS 100%
We place high demands on our regrinding and coating processes. Tolerances are at a maximum of 0.003 mm, in addition, we have advanced measuring equipment to ensure and document the quality of the deliveries. We can also provide measurement reports.
SUSTAINABILITY
Regrinding and coating (NACO®, NACRO®, TiN) worn Tools with EdgeRevivePro is the sustainable option for your business that not only reduces waste, but extends tool lifespan and contributes to a circular economy.
Electrical Discharge Machining
MACHINING WITHOUT DISTORTION
Unlike traditional machining methods, the tool in this process never directly interacts with the workpiece. Since no forces are exerted on the piece, distortion is eliminated, allowing for the machining of very thin features without the risk of breakage. The absence of distortion also allows for the achievement of very close tolerances, up to +/- 0.012mm.
FLEXIBILITY
A key benefit of Wire EDM (Trådgnist), is its enhanced design flexibility. It enables the creation of shapes and depths that traditional machining methods cannot achieve, such as undercuts and impeccably square inner corners. Another advantage is the absence of burrs in the machining process, adding to its appeal.
PRECISION
While Wire EDM (Trådgnist) may not be the most efficient for high-volume orders, it excels in the production of small parts and prototypes due to its high precision. This technique is frequently used in industries like automotive and aerospace where intricate components demand high levels of precision.
SUPERIOR SURFACE FINISH
Conventional material removal techniques such as CNC milling can leave machining marks on the workpiece, necessitating additional post-machining finishing. However, Wire EDM (Trådgnist), imparts no directionality to the surface finish, thus enabling the creation of uniformly smooth surfaces without extra processing.
WE CAN MACHINE ANY CONDUCTIVE MATERIAL
Using Wire EDM (Trådgnist) Aarbakke Edge is able to machine tough materials such as Inconel and Tungsten carbide.
EXPERIENCE
Highly skilled Wire EDM operators can deliver according to your needs, every time.
