Sunnen hone has 16 m stroke
The latest addition to Sunnen's tube hone line has 16 m stroke length for long parts up to 1,000 mm diameter, including aircraft driveshafts and submarine periscopes, removes material at 2,500 cm3/hr
The HTD, the longest, most powerful in the six-machine line of Sunnen tube hones, uses an operator-friendly Windows-based controller for optimum control of bore geometry with functions for stroke position, motion, stone feed and cutting pressure.
The HTD is particularly suited for controlling taper variation and drift in long bores, using Sunnen's double- and triple-banked tools, which have up to triple the abrasive length of ordinary tools. Available abrasives include aluminium oxide, silicon carbide, CBN and diamond honing stones.
