Just seeking any info if someone has done this before.
My ID Tool stations are worn and tapered, causing me a host of issues. These are OE Mazak tool holders and I am considering putting a boring head in the spindle and opening up the pocket to 1.75" and pressing in a bushing and then boring that bushing back to 1.5" giving me near perfect alignment.
My concerns are that the tool holder has some oddball stuff going on with coolant passages and I am unsure if taking an 1/8" off the wall will cut into something.
These are the style but all cast Mazak 1 1/2" ID CNC Lathe Tool Block NEX100-8435 Turret toolholder tool holder VDI
