Sunnen Products Company offers its HTE-1600W Tube Hone, an all-electric precision honing machine designed for optimal bore geometry and surface finish in small diameter, long bore applications.
Engineered for industries such as firearms and defense, medical, mining and energy, this machine features an all-electric design, allowing ease of maintenance high efficiency. The HTE-1600W is especially suited for processing parts with IDs from 4 mm to 20 mm and lengths up to 1,500 mm, delivering enhanced bore geometry and surface finish.
Its active 3-axis function control manages stroke positions, motion control, stone feed, spindle speed and cutting pressure, resulting in improved accuracy and bore geometry. The machine features 100% process control with tool overload protection, preventing tool breakage and offering consistent results.
"Compared to traditional bore lapping methods, the HTE-1600W offers significant advantages," said a company spokesperson. "It substantially reduces cycle time, decreasing processing time compared to manual bore lapping. The machine's stroke repeatability within 0.006 in. (0.15 mm) ensures consistent and precise honing results. A size lock system with stone wear compensation maintains accuracy over time and reduces the need for frequent adjustments."
The HTE-1600W's design incorporates a one-piece base for improved performance and cost-effectiveness. Additionally, the machine's traveling steady rest provides additional support for the tooling used with long workpieces, enhancing versatility.
The machine is compatible with Sunnen MMT and LBT tools, offering flexibility for various small, long diameter bore applications.
The machine interface is available in 13 languages, enhancing its usability for operators worldwide. Additional features include a dual filtration system for clean honing fluid and improved part quality, and the ability to hone for time, number of strokes or to a programmed diameter.
