Whether you're performing rough boring operations or precision finishing work, there are a lot of considerations that go into the job. Starting with the right boring head is the first order of business, and there are several considerations to make an informed decision.
Deep hole boring comes with challenges created by the inevitable deflection that occurs when trying to finish a hole of a substantial depth. Various factors determine the best approach to solving the issue, and it’s important to consider all factors before choosing a solution for your boring needs.
With a little knowhow and the right tools, see how you can significantly reduce cycle time by rough boring instead of performing a helical interpolation with a mill.
Series 319 SW aluminum heads provide lightweight solutions without sacrificing performance. Combined with the CKN modular connection, they are ideal for long-reach applications where steel tools may exceed ATC weight/moment limits.
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.
With sizes ranging from 41 to 203 mm, the EWE digital boring head for fine boring features a large on-head display and connects to the BIG KAISER app making extremely precise bores easier than ever.
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.
