Over the last couple of decades, digitization has increasingly crept into our lives. In the metalworking world it’s undeniable. Digital boring heads have emerged as indispensable time-saving and quality-ensuring tools in machine shops.

We’ve seen and heard it all when it comes to boring holes. That said, there are always a few questions that pop up over and over. From optimizing modular boring assemblies to deciding between twin boring or high-feed milling, here’s some of our best boring advice.

There’s more than one way to finish a hole. The most effective option will depend on the number of parts, acceptable cycle time and tolerance callouts.

Dialing in a finishing job can be meticulous, with several measurements, adjustments and discussions taking place. That not only costs time, but those tool touches and interactions introduce some risk inside a shop. Our next boring innovation will help eliminate many of those repeated interactions and extra adjustments.

When it comes to boring, there are several factors that can lead to poor performance. Whether it’s long cycle times, short tool life or poor bore quality, any or all these factors may need to be addressed in order to increase productivity. Although different, these issues are often closely linked in a given application.

Even the most well-planned boring process may not achieve the desired result. We’ve provided solutions to common rough boring problems to help get you back on the road to productivity.

When it comes to aerospace components, the slightest imperfection could be catastrophic. Our experts answer five questions about boring precision holes on aerospace parts.

There’s more than one way to make holes, but some approaches are better than others. Working with customers from across every industry, our team gets to see what works and what doesn’t. These are a few of the interesting questions—and unexpected answers.

The manufacturing process of boring is enlarging a hole in a piece of metal. Different kinds of boring tools are available for boring operations.

Lead angles close to 90° more effectively combat potentially damaging chatter and vibration because they apply the least amount of radial pressure.

Common boring mistakes that are costing you time & money—and how to fix them

Aerospace is unique among industries in its thirst for component accuracy with ‘blemish-free’ precision. Unlike any other industry, anything that goes into the air has to be on spec, as the smallest imperfection in machining can adversely affect flight safety.

The EWA Automatic Fine Boring System performs closed-loop boring operations without a human operator.
