Precision Honing machine


smarthone

Technology for the ambitions job shop manufacturing

The new generation of smarthone machines caters in particular to the needs of contract manufacturers in job shop production and prototyping. It meets the highest requirements in regard to flexibility and efficiency. From manual honing in single piece production up to fully automated operations, all suitable operating modes are available. In addition to short set up and machining times, importance was put on an user-friendliness.

Highest efficiency in a compact design

All necessary functions, such as the coolant conditioning and superfine filtration, are integrated into a compact floor space of only 1.6 m2. The costoptimized horizontal honing system is designed for the production of most diverse batches and product ranges. Precision work pieces with diameters of 0.8 - 45 mm and honing lengths of up to 200 mm can be produced very efficiently within short cycle times. Stroke speeds of up to 60 m/min and accelerations of up to 4g are achieved.

Flexible and technologically sophisticated

The machine is designed for honing the most diverse batches and product ranges. Precision components with diameters of 0.8 - 45 mm and honing lengths of up to 200 mm can be produced. The highly dynamic linear drive system allows for stroke speeds of up to 60 m/min and accelerations of up to 40 m/s². In addition, the patented electro mechanical expansion with force sensor offers force and stroke controlled honing. High stock removal and machining qualities as well as short cycle times can easily be achieved.

High degree of standardization and optional configuration

If needed, the standard design can be gradually extended by relevant options resulting in an optimal cost-benefit-effect for the operator due to the high degree of standardization. Upgrading options could for instance be an in-process gauging with feedback control or an internal coolant supply though the honing tool for further process improvement. The implementation of a cost-optimized ream honing process may also be a meaningful alternative for corresponding applications.

Machine operation made easy

Thanks to "Job Manager" and configured interfaces, setting up or retooling the machine is possible within the shortest timeframe. This also applies to changing and controlling various types of fixtures, tools and functions. The intuitive operator interface minimizes the preparation times and training processes for additional operators. Additionally, short changeover times and a high degree of reproducibility are ensured by the specially adapted and investment-friendly tool program.

Optional equipment

  • Plug & play interface for flexible integration of peripheral equipment
  • Upgrade with an automation cell with up to 4 secondary processes
  • Placement of a second two-stroke honing machine for double processing or for rough and finish honing
  • Upgrading of a sliding table for loading during the honing process
  • In-process gauging with feedback control of the infeed or internal coolant supply of the tool
  • Interface for additional external gauging equipment
  • Attractive financing offers
