Hey gents,
Silly question: what’s out there for CNC hones? My boss uses an old Sunnen, but we do so much of it on just about every hole on every part, I figure there has to be a better way. We work mostly with aluminum.
Are they just single axis cnc mills with through spindle oil? Do they use probing to check the parts and stone wear? I think I passed by one at IMTS, didn’t look like anything special. Other than that I’ve never seen one used nor know anyone that had one.
More of a curiosity than anything else. I doubt it’s worth the investment since not a lot of people do it, but I could be wrong.
