Kennametal Extrude Hone EVO enhances ECM

The Kennametal Extrude Hone EVO is the company’s next generation of electrochemical machining (ECM) solutions, featuring proprietary generator technology delivering from 3 to 100 kW power depending on machine configuration. Additionally, Kennametal says that EVO delivers electrochemical machining without stray machining attack for even higher surface finish.

Extrude Hone EVO is available in various standard layouts: single or dual cell, or even in multi-cell configurations, thanks to the system's modular design and construction. It is said to be easy to configure and easy to integrate into modern production lines.

Reliability being at the heart of production control requirements, EVO provides for online monitoring and control of all relevant parameters. The online feature is also beneficial in delivering remote process demonstrations.
