Summary: Enlarging
and finishing holes.
Boring machines
are machine tools designed to enlarge or finish existing holes with precision.
Unlike drilling, which creates the initial hole, boring precisely controls the
hole's diameter, roundness, and straightness.
Function: Boring machines are used to:
* Enlarge holes to a specific size with
tight tolerances.
* Improve the roundness and straightness of
holes.
* Create internal tapers or other shapes
within a hole.
Mechanism: They use a single-point cutting tool mounted on a boring bar, which is rotated
and fed into the workpiece.
Types: Boring
machines vary in size and configuration, including:
Horizontal boring mills: Versatile
machines capable of machining large and complex parts.
Vertical boring mills: Used for
machining large, heavy workpieces that are difficult to hold horizontally.
Jig borers: High-precision machines
for accurately locating and boring holes.
Boring machines are essential for producing accurate holes in engines, machinery, and other applications where precise internal dimensions are critical.
