Contract Honing Services

Contract Honing Services

Engis now offers contract precision bore honing services for our customers as well as complete turnkey systems. This service includes short runs for prototype purposes, all the way through large ongoing production capabilities.

Our Capabilities

Engis systems, designed and built in the USA, are well-known for achieving the most precise bore geometry in the industry. Depending upon the specific application, the following bore precision is possible:

• Size control within 1um (0.000040”)
• Roundness down to 0.1um (0.000004”)
• Cylindricity down to 0.5um (0.000020”)
• Surface finishes down to 0.1 µm / 4 µin Ra in most materials.
• Special surface finish requirements, such as Rz, Rt, plateau, bearing surfaces (Rvk, Rpk, Rk) and specific cross hatch patterns can be produced.

Bore Sizes and Types:

• Bore Diameters from .045” up to 30”
• Bore Lengths up to 36”
• Through bores
• Blind bores
• Dual diameter bores (step bores) with concentricity requirements
• Seats
