The jig boring machine - invented by SIP in 1921 - is no longer used for the production of drilling jigs. These templates, which represent the geometric position of drill holes on a workpiece, became superfluous with the development of modern CNC technology. What has remained, however, is the need for ultraprecise drilling machines. Today, the boundaries between jig boring machines and machining centres, both high-precision machine tools, are fading. Used jig boring machines, such as DIXI or MIKROMAT, as well as other boring machines and industrial machinery can be found at Surplex. Even with a recent year of construction!
