TaeguTec’s Hush-Bore is a head-exchangeable, vibration-free boring bar line for deep internal turning.
The damping system in the shank of the Hush-Bore can achieve deep internal machining by more than 5XBD. This remarkable damping performance allows the workpiece to have very good surface roughness, which prolongs tool life and promotes stable machining. It also means increased feed and cutting speeds, making it a more productive option.
The depth of machining in internal turning varies based on the type of shank material used. Carbide boring bars can be used up to 5XBD, whereas steel boring bars can be used up to 3XBD (bar diameter).
Yet, even with carbide boring bars, deep internal turning is still very challenging to manage. Since its launch, the anti-vibration Hush-Bore line for deep internal machining has garnered positive comments from numerous customers, demonstrating how this problem has only spurred innovation.
In response, TaeguTec has added 12xD and 14xD shanks to its line-up of already available 7xD and 10xD shanks, providing even deeper internal turning solutions to the Hush-Bore’s dampening technology.
Shanks for the Hush-Bore line are available as standard items in 7 different diameters (Ø16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, and 60mm) and in 4 lengths (7XBD, 10XBD, 12XBD and 14XBD). The various exchangeable heads can be securely fastened with serrated couplings located in the boring bars.
TaeguTec has introduced its top-tier WIN-SFEED technology to the Hush-Bore boring bar family of highly efficient cutting tools.
With a new Ø80 shank and a dedicated head introduced to the anti-vibration Hush-Bore boring bar line specialised in deep internal machining, TaeguTec has expanded its reach in the deep internal machining market.
Available in two types – a modular head with standard inserts for machining various materials, and an adapter that can machine while fastened to a standard square holder, allowing for relatively large-diameter internal machining.
Additionally, TaeguTec provides specialised sleeves that improve the set-up time of the Hush-Bore boring bars, making it quick and simple.
These specific sleeves with a one-sided slit maintain a robust clamping force and high precision because of their wide contact area when combined with the new Hush-Bore shank.
To further diversify the Hush-Bore family’s range, TaeguTec offers modular threading heads for both 16 IR/L and 22 IR/L inserts. The new modular heads are compatible with both Hush-Bore shanks and C-Adapters with Hush-Bore head connections.
For internal grooving of deep holes, TaeguTec’s Hush-Bore uses the highly effective and productive T-Clamp line of inserts, thereby offering ranges between 2mm to 6mm and are mountable to the existing Hush-Bore shanks as well as head-changeable C-Adapters.
Although internal grooving negatively impacts surface finish due to the vibrations caused by long overhangs, using the Hush-Bore grooving products results in good surface roughness, even in deep internal grooving of 5xD or higher, and offers improved tool life and excellent machining performance.
