Boring heads are specifically designed to enlarge an existing hole. They hold cutters in position so they can rotate and gradually remove material until the hole is at the desired diameter.
How fast do you run a boring head?
For safety reasons due to the rotational imbalance inherent in a boring head, never rotate the boring head faster than 600 rpm in the design lab. Boring heads on Bridgeport-size milling machines should usually not be used with depth cuts deeper than 0.020"
What does a boring bar do?
A boring bar is a tool used in metalworking and woodworking. Boring is a technique used in many aspects of building. Woodworkers have used boring as a form of drilling for centuries. In woodworking, the boring tool is static in size and used to form circular plunge cuts.
What are the most important factors for successful boring?
The nose radius, RE, is a key factor in boring operations. The selection of nose radius depends on depth of cut and feed, and influences the surface finish, chip breaking and insert strength. The relationship between nose radius and depth of cut affects vibration tendencies.
