TaeguTec’s HUSH-BORE is a head-exchangeable, vibration-free boring bar line for deep internal turning with a damping system in the shank that can achieve deep internal machining by more than 5XBD(bar diameter). 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.
While the depth of machining in internal turning varies based on the type of shank material used, carbide boring bars are suitable up to 5XBD and steel boring bars up to 3XBD.Yet, even with carbide boring bars, deep internal turning is still a very challenging task.
Since its launch, the anti-vibration HUSH-BORE line for deep internal machining has received very positive comments from numerous customers. 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 damping technology.
Shanks for the HUSH-BORE line are available as standard items in 7 different diameters (Ø16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, and 60 mm) 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.
While TaeguTec has introduced its top-tier WIN-SFEED technology to the HUSH-BORE boring bar family of highly efficient cutting tools, the launch of a new Ø80 mm shank and a dedicated head has expanded TaeguTec’s 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 specialized 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 achieving ranges between 2-6 mm. They can be mounted on the existing HUSH-BORE shanks as well as head-changeable C-ADAPTERs.
Although internal grooving negatively impacts surface finish due to vibrations caused by long overhangs, using HUSH-BORE grooving products achieve good surface roughness, even in deep internal grooving of 5xD or higher and offers improved tool life and excellent machining performance.
