Honing

Honing uses a precision tool with a mechanically-rotated abrasive tip for enlarging holes to precise dimensions.

 Horizontal Hone  Horizontal/Vertical Hone
 144” Stroke Length – 0.99” to 18.9” Bore Diameter – 20” Max. workpiece O/D  46” Stroke – 7” Max. Bore Diameter (horizontal)
 12” Stroke – 7” Max. Bore Diameter (Vertical)

Grinding

Grinding is an abrasive machining process that uses a grinding wheel as the cutting tool.  It is used on components that must show high surface quality and accuracy.

 OD Grinder (Outside Diameter)  ID Grinder (Inside Diameter)
 14” to 48” Wheel Range – 22” Spindle Height – 60” Swing on Center – 80” Traversing Range  3.5” Spindle – 46” Spindle Length – 58” Swing on Center – 120” Extended Bed

 32” Wheel Range – 86” Swing on Center – 96” Traversing Range

Lathe

Lathe is a machine tool that rotates the workpiece on its axis to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding, knurling, or drilling with tools that are applied to the workpiece to create an object with symmetry about an axis of rotation.

 Engine Lathe
 53.25” Max. Cutting Diameter – 120” Tool Post Travel
