How to select the right Boring Mill for your application?
Guide to selecting a Horizontal Boring & Milling Machine
KURAKI has as many Horizontal Boring & Milling Machine models to fit our customers# needs. Here are some points to assist in selecting the optimal machine for your requirement.
Points for selection:
?Point1 Select by a spindle diameter
The main spindle of the KURAKI Horizontal Boring & Milling Machine is a feeding type with a spindle diameter 110 mm, 130 mm, or 150 mm. Normally, the larger the spindle diameter, the stronger the twisting rigidity becomes for heavy-duty cutting. For machining soft materials like aluminum, a high-speed quill spindle is recommended.
?Point2 Select by a workpiece weight and size
Confirm that the workpiece to be machined matches the machine table size (worktable size) and workpiece allowable mass. Select a bigger size than expected, not an exact size for the workpiece, so that the optimal machine performance can be performed.
?Point3 Select by an axis travel
Axis travels vary depending on the workpiece machining positions and the machining widths. The larger the W-axis (Quill travel), the deeper the machine can cut. The larger the X-axis and Y-axis values become, the wider and higher the workpiece can be.
