Using helical interpolation to open holes is common practice. And in shallow holes or one-off projects, it’s a fine choice.

The importance of meticulously prepping, starting, and finishing holes can’t be emphasized enough.

Learn five key factors to consider when selecting boring tools to improve performance, reduce costs and ensure part quality.

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.

Insert holders on most Series 310 boring heads can be mounted upside down to perform precision back boring operations.

Enhance your machining skills by understanding when to use balanced cutting for precise straight holes and stepped cutting for efficient heavy cuts—ensuring smarter tool choices and project success.

ID boring is a common and time-consuming operation on CNC lathes. Common issues have led to the development of world-class boring tools—traditionally used on milling machines—that have proven to be just as effective on a CNC lathe.
