Cylinder Honing Machine

Honing machines are metal abrading tools and the honing process utilising hard tooling or honing stones and perishable abrasives stones for the correction of. Diameter. Shape. Surface finish.The honing process is used to produce smooth surface finishes inside bores, or to hold precise tolerances on bore diameters. Honing produces the required surface finish or finished diameter by utilising an abrasive stone that turns while being moved in and out of the workpiece. Honing the edge of a cutting tool has benefits, including improved tool life, improved workpiece surface finish, reduced spindle load and reduced overall manufacturing cost.Not to be confused with lapping, honing is a machining process that involves the use of an abrasive material to grind down a work piece's surface. It's performed in conjunction with a stone, known as a honing stone, to manipulate the shape and texture of a work piece's surface.
