Product Description micro boring bar.


With several years of experience and knowledge we are into offering a comprehensive range of
Micro Boring Cartridge. The Micro Boring Cartridges that is offered by us are accurate in
dimensions and are also very light in weight. The price of these Micro Boring Cartridges are
highly demanded in the market by the customer because of their quality and price. Boring
increases the inside diameter of a hole, and achieves three things: sizing, straightness, and
concentricity.
The following recommendations should be followed to obtain the best possible stability:
• Choose the largest possible bar diameter, but at the same time ensure that there is enough
room for chip evacuation.
• Choose the smallest possible overhang but, at the same time, ensure that the length of the bar
allows the recommended clamping lengths to be achieved.
• A 0-degree lead angle should be used. The lead angle should, under no circumstances be more
than 15 degrees.
• The indexable inserts should be positive rake that results in lower cutting forces.
• The carbide grade should be tougher than for external turning in order to withstand the
stresses to which the insert is exposed when chip jamming and vibration occur.
• Choose a nose radius that is smaller than the cutting depth.
Sizing: Boring brings the hole to the proper size and finish. A drill or reamer can only be used if
the desired size is "standard" or if special tools are ground. The boring tool can work to any
diameter and it will give the required finish by adjusting speed, feed and nose radius. Precision
holes can be bored using micro adjustable boring bars.
Straightness: Boring will straighten the original drilled or cast hole. Drills, especially the longer
ones, may wander off-center and cut at a slight angle because of eccentric forces on the drill,
occasional hard spots in the material, or uneven sharpening of the drill. Cored holes in castings
are almost never completely straight. The boring tool being moved straight along the ways with
the carriage feed will correct these errors.
Concentricity: Boring will make the hole concentric with the outside diameter within the limits of
the accuracy of the chuck or holding device. For best concentricity, the turning of the outside diameter
and the boring of the inside diameter is done in one set-up-that is, without moving the work between
operations.
Boring bar types: Boring bars are available in steel, solid carbide, and carbide-reinforced steel. The
capacity to resist the elasticity coefficient of carbide is three times larger than that of steel, carbide
bars are preferred for large overhangs. The disadvantage of carbide is its poor ability to withstand
tensile stress. For carbide-reinforced bars, the carbide sleeves are pre-stressed to prevent tensile
stresses.

VMC Machines
Boring operations can be performed on other than boring machines, such as CNC lathes, milling
machines and machining centers. Boring machines, like most other machine tools, can be
classified as horizontal or vertical.
