SFMS's used CNC boring machines may not be as exciting as some of the other more impressive machine tools that make up the heart of any modern machine shop, but they are incredibly durable and can last for decades with consistent use. Because of their longevity and usefulness, they can also retain a significant amount of value when properly maintained and cared for over the years. CNC, or Computer Numerical Control,
boring mills for sale are able to transform raw material into a finished product by using cylindrical cutters that can move along multiple axes. This allows them to produce the shapes, slots, details and holes of a 3D part in fewer steps than would be possible manually.
CNC Vertical Boring Mill
Boring machining is one of many subtractive manufacturing processes that can cut holes in finished parts. It’s particularly well suited to cutting large-diameter holes that require exceptional dimensional accuracy, like those found in engines and other large machinery.
Compared to horizontal boring machines, vertical ones offer advantages such as more stability and rigidity. They also often feature a more powerful spindle, which allows them to accommodate larger workpieces. Some even have efficient coolant systems that help dissipate heat, lubricate tools and remove chips from the machine, enhancing both precision and tool longevity. A machinist will use a boring mill for very large-scale industrial operations, such as casting steam engine turbines and locomotive wheels. They may even be used for repairing existing components, such as a water turbine runner or an oversized pipe flange. The day-to-day reality of a shop that uses boring mills is often custom machining. These shops take on a lot of jobs that other manufacturers have no desire to do themselves.
CNC Horizontal Milling Machine
Milling machines are an important tool in a modern manufacturer's arsenal. However, the type of milling machine used for a particular project may be critical to success. It can help minimize human error, reduce production times and ensure that every detail is taken care of.
The most common types of milling machines are vertical and horizontal machining centers. Each has its merits, but the decision often comes down to the size of the workpiece and the type of project at hand. Horizontal machining centers have a spindle that's oriented horizontally, and the rotary cutter digs into the workpiece from above. These machines are well-suited for heavier workpieces and projects like sinking dies that require multiple sides of the piece to be worked. They also allow machinists to take advantage of gravity, which can help eliminate the need for additional ancillary equipment to remove chips. Various add-on parts and cutting heads can modify vertical milling machines to support horizontal milling processes.
