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.
