In the automotive industry, competitivity is linked to the highest speed and accuracy of performances possible, to reduce the cost per part and the percentage of waste (which must tend to zero, ZEWA: Zero Waste Program). Any savings in production time is important. Even if the material to work, for example, is sintered hard steel, with interrupted cut.
Using boring bars in a special patented material, in particular combined solution specially developed, it was possible for the customer decrease production lead time by over 30%, creating numerous other benefits:
drastically reducing vibration
perform machining in a single grip
achieve greater machining precision
achieve better surface finish by increasing the life of the polycrystalline inserts used.
