Product catalog summary
Overview
Shefcut® precision reamers and boring tools are designed for creating accurately sized, straight, and round bores with excellent surface finishes. These tools feature a single, replaceable cutting blade supported by multiple guide pads, ensuring superior size control, surface finish quality, and hole geometry compared to conventional tools.
The Shefcut® Design Concept
The design separates the cutting, guiding, and supporting functions, allowing micro-adjustments for consistent accuracy. Guide pads provide rigid support, optimizing performance and resulting in superior bore geometry and fine surface finishes, with tolerances typically within 5 microns.
Precision Reaming and Boring Solutions
Shefcut tools are used in precision reaming and boring applications, with specific designs for each. Reaming tools operate at lower speeds and align with the bore, while boring tools operate at higher speeds for accurate bore location, ensuring minimal part-to-part variation.
Tool Designs and Applications
Shefcut tools are customizable for various applications, including multi-feature bores and specialized machining setups. Applications include tools for connecting rods, valve seats, and shift bar housings, tailored to specific material and machining requirements.
Applications Machining Data
Detailed machining data is provided for various applications, including component type, material, machine type, spindle speed, feed rate, cycle time, coolant type, size achieved, and finish achieved, aiding in tool and setup selection for specific manufacturing needs.
Conclusion
Shefcut tools offer advanced solutions for precision reaming and boring, with customizable designs to meet diverse industrial requirements, ensuring superior performance in high-precision manufacturing environments.
Technical Specifications
  • Application 13: Axle flange made from gray cast iron, processed on a lathe at 2000 RPM, feed rate of 0.18mm/rev, cycle time of 10 seconds, using semi-synthetic coolant at 5%, achieving a size of 0.003mm with a surface finish of 0.7 micrometers Ra.
  • Shefcut World Reamer® Series: Precision reaming tools with a rigid blade-clamping system for maximum chip clearance, available for metric and inch hole sizes, with options for internal or external coolant supply.
Tool Specifications
Tools are available in various sizes with specific blade and clamp screw requirements. Blade part numbers indicate properties such as angle, size, length, cutting lead, radial rake, and coating.
Blade Options & Cutting Lead Geometries
Standard cutting leads (C3.0, C1.3, C0.6) are suggested for different applications, with specific finishes attainable. Recommended machining allowance guidelines are provided for different reamer diameters and materials.
Tool Holders
Floating holders are designed to compensate for misalignment in turning applications, self-centering, and usable with or without internal coolant.
Key Recommendations
Ensure the blade lead matches the guide pads to avoid tool damage. Use appropriate cutting lead geometry based on material type and application requirements. Consider using PCD-tipped blades for enhanced performance on specific materials.
Adjustable Holders for Shefcut Tools
Adjustable holders allow precise axial and radial adjustments, achieving concentricity of 3 microns or less, recommended for boring holes with close tolerances and length-to-diameter ratios greater than 4:1.
Easy-True Adjustment Feature
The Easy-True design includes four cone-head torque screws for quick elimination of cutting edge run-out, ensuring concentricity when using Shefcut reamers in standard side-lock holders.
Setting Fixtures
Setting fixtures ensure secure and accurate tool settings, reducing downtime and minimizing blade breakage. Two designs are available: the World Reamer fixture for compact tools and the All-Purpose fixture for longer or larger diameter tools.
Blade Replacement and Adjustment
Shefcut blades are micro-adjustable for consistent cutting diameters. Proper adjustment ensures effective cutting and minimizes damage.
Coolant Usage
Coolant is crucial for performance, with recommendations varying by material type. Internal coolant is advised for specific conditions like deep blind bores or high-speed machining.
Operating Requirements
Accurate alignment of the machine spindle to the workpiece is essential. Power feed is necessary for consistent cutting pressure, and floating holders can correct misalignment.
Machining Guide
Guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate are provided for various materials, considering factors like blade lead and coolant type.
Tool Performance Guide
Shefcut tools produce precise holes with fine finishes, but variables like coolant, alignment, and blade adjustment affect performance. Tips for enhancing tool performance include checking alignment, adjusting run-out, and ensuring proper blade settings.
Tool Performance Guide
Corrective actions for various bore conditions are provided, including adjusting feed rates, varying cutting speeds, checking chip evacuation, increasing coolant lubricity, and inspecting blade wear.
Customer Information Form
This form collects essential customer and project details, ensuring the correct tool is provided for specific applications.
Application Data Sheet
The data sheet outlines the requirements for Shefcut® Precision Reaming & Boring Solutions, emphasizing the importance of detailed part prints or sketches.
