Digital-Ready Boring Tools

Aug. 20, 2020
The eBore Fine Boring System makes precision adjustment simple and promotes more productive, predictable, and accurate boring to within 2 microns.

KENNAMETAL has introduced a line of digital-ready fine boring tools, the eBore Fine Boring System, that makes precision adjustment simple and promotes more productive, predictable, and accurate boring. The system consists of cutting units to cover a diameter range from 6 to 1,020 mm (0.236 to 40.157 in.) and an optional digital display that makes precision adjustments as simple as turning a screw.

With the eBore digital device, dialing in a tight bore and losing count of how far the adjustment screw was turned is a thing of the past. With an adjustment accuracy of 0.002 mm (0.00008 in.), the chip and coolant-resistant device contain a glass-scale that keeps track of boring bar movement. Simply snap it in place, turn the boring head´s adjustment screw by the desired amount, and the tool is ready for the next boring operation.

Kennametal’s eBore digital device is an optional part of the Kennametal Digital Boring System for 'no-mistake' adjustments and accuracy to within 2 microns.

With eBore, there is no need to remove the boring head from the spindle for adjustment nor to count graduations or take notes. The device shuts off automatically after 30 seconds and provides more than 5,000 adjustments between battery changes. And if you forget to remove the boring head before turning on the spindle, a ball and spring clamping mechanism releases the display automatically at 500 RPM, preventing potential injuries.

For simplicity, the eBore system comes with Kennametal´s KM quick-change interface and can be easily adapted to HSK, PSC, KM4X, and steep taper spindles.

The eBore product line consists of 4 types of tools, all of them feature through the tool coolant, covering the following diameter range:
•  eBore Universal Tool: 6 to 152 mm (0.236 to 5.984 in.)
•  eBore Fine Boring Tool: 20 to 205 mm (0.787 to 8.071 in.)
•  eBore Bridge Finishing Tool: 200 to 1,020 mm (7.874 to 40.157 in.)
•  eBore Twin Cutter Roughing Tool: 19.5 to 1,020 mm (7.677 to 40.157 in.)
