Sunnen SVL-2115 laps and gauges bores in one set-up

The Sunnen SVL-2115 is a multi-stage automated lapping machine that laps and air-gauges bores in a single set-up.

Based on the same machine platform as the company’s SV-2100 honing system, the SVL-2115 can process hydraulic valves, sleeves, fuel system components and other parts that are prone to distortion when honed. Gauge readings are fed back to the control and the cycle is repeated until the parts are within specification.

The Sunnen lapping system handles workpiece diameters from 6.5 to 20 mm and lengths up to 12 times the bore diameter (not exceeding 200 mm). Spindle speed range is 100-2,000 rpm during lapping, but slow speeds for non-powered steps, such as lapping paste application or slow-rotation bore entry, are supported. The machine runs at up to 350 strokes per minute.
