S.C.A.M.I.® Roller Burnishing Blind Hole 360 Images Icon
Roller burnishing is a cold-working process that produces a fine surface finish by the planetary rotation of hardened rolls over a bored or turned metal surface. This process provides a more effective method of sizing, finishing, and work-hardening of your parts to exact specifications.
Advantages
  • Provides versatility because the operation can be performed on any rotating spindle
  • Provides accurate size control with tolerances within 0.0005" or better (depending on variables such as material)
  • Achieves fine surface finishes between 1-10 µin Ra and increases surface hardness by 5-10%
  • Improves metallurgical properties
  • Replaces grinding, honing, lapping, and other expensive secondary options
Features
  • Diameter range: 0.1850" - 6.5315" (4.70 mm - 165.90 mm)
  • All roller burnishing tools are composed of the basic burnisher assembly including cage, cone, rolls, and shank (either straight or morse taper)
  • In some cases, there will be a diameter overlap between a series and the series after it. If the diameter you need falls into this overlap, choose the higher of the two series.
  • For example, you need a 24.64 mm diameter tool. This diameter falls into both the K series (16.60 mm - 24.74 mm) and the L series (24.54 mm - 31.16 mm). In this scenario, you would choose the L series tool that covers the 24.64 mm diameter.
