Precision Honing Machines ft Advanced Honing Technology

Advanced honing technology lifehone - high precision technology in an exclusive design Your benefits: In the recent years honing has become a worldwide leading high performance process. There is hardly anyone in the entire metal working industry who wants to go without the performance advantage we offer. Honing is a precision stock removal process for practically all materials. Small bore diameters often place different demands on the production technology as large ones. Problems such as a less favorable length/diameter ratio of the bore and less available space have to be solved. Due to...

Easy operation and optimal configuration options We select the appropriate spindle unit based on workpiece design and the required speed dynamics. The Gehring honing control allows for precision controlled stroke speeds and reversal precisions. assistant eases machine operation significantly. After entering a few relevant parameters about the component, material and tool, the process and stock removal can be defined, and honing can be started once the tool has been positioned. The stroke position and all other relevant parameters for machining the component are automatically calculated. For...

A complete package for perfect results The super finishing of high-precision components depends on the perfect coordination of all influencing factors to the honing process such as the honing tool, abrasives, fixtures, feeding and gauging systems. All of these elements must be perfectly matched to one another to achieve an optimal result. We supply you with the complete package from the abrasives to the machine, so that you always receive the perfect solution for your application. The newly developed single-stone L series tooling system is especially designed for honing high-precision bores...

lifehone machines with rotary transport Flexible 1-spindle honing center The single-spindle version of lifehone series is impressive with its compact design and small footprint. Depending on the machining task and the batch size this type of machine can be equipped with a fixed or rotary table and up to 4 stations. This is certainly the right choice for customers with limited space or must frequently change the type of workpieces. Flexible 2-spindle honing center This version can be equipped with 1 or 2 honing spindles. In general, rotary tables with 3 to 8 stations are installed. These...

Honing center for gears Due to the great demand for machining of gears, our two-spindle lifehone has become the standard solution in the market. The machine is especially designed for the needs of machining of gear types. The integrated gripper transport offers the possibility to cycle gears with different diameters. Furthermore, the user only needs one fixture below the two spindles. Honing tool for gears To complete the package for the processing of gear parts, we have adapted a honing tool with internal measuring system specifically for the given requirements. The honing process is...

Honing center with inner column and rotary table This completely new machine with inner column construction combines modern design with optimized accessibility. The rotary table is placed around the inner column so we can guarantee a quick access to the process stations, a good overview and a quick and easy changeover. Additionally there are maintenance panels to set up the process in a short time. Alternatively equipped with a six or eight sided inner column you can fix up to 7 honing spindles. With this we can assure short cycle times and multistep processes. Pre and post gauging stations...

Honing center with inner column and rotary table Horizontal honing machine for pinion gears Our three-spindle lifehone series for pinion gear processing has already proven itself in the market and has become the standard solution. The main difference compared to the other lifehone machines is the horizontal honing of the workpieces. The machine is loaded via an handling system from the pallet. In general, the number of workpieces per pallet is between 5 to 10 pinion gears. The advantage of pallet method is the shortened processing time per workpiece. Multispindle transfer honing machine The...

Laser systems for various applications Laser cell Light as a tool in production engineering - the laser with its versatility, still fascinates all users of this method. Gehring has also discovered the concentrated light for production. In cooperation with our customers, we have developed a number of different laser applications and installed them in appropriate machines. Typical applications of our laser systems are: 1. Laser structuring to improve static friction – To increase the force of static friction of the friction partners and to abridge the components each of them is laser...

MicroStar – three processes on one machine In order to offer an innovative solution for the machining of pinion gears to our customers, we have jointly developed the new MicroStar 285. Generating customer value – investment, cycle time and quality – is the center of our effort. The outcome is one single rotary transfer machine which ideally interconnects finishing, grinding and honing. The MicroStar F-G-H is a high precision machine tool for carrying out several high precision operations in one chuck. This feature eliminates the addition of clamping errors and achieves extremely high...

Your trust, our service Modern manufacturing is demanding. Machines must operate dependably throughout the years in multiple shift operations, they demand increased technical knowledge, careful support, and fast worldwide help during faults. In order to provide this, we have developed a comprehensive service portfolio. Machine Trials To achieve optimal end results, all influencing factors must be coordinated. We achieve this in individual machine trials. With individually verified and recorded project phases, we find the ideal solution for you. Teleservice Our machines are technically...
