BURNISHING | S.C.A.M.I.® Roller Burnishing Systems

How it Works

The roller burnishing tool must be aligned with the workpiece (maximum error = 0.1 mm). NOTE: If you are uncertain about the alignment error, a floaƟng shank is recommended.

When the tool is in the hole, the cone pushes the rolls onto the surface to be burnished. The cage retains the rolls in an angled posiƟon to the axis of the tool.

NOTE: When self-feed is not required (blind-hole applicaƟons), you must use a cage that holds the rolls parallel with the axis of the tool. If the machine feed is stopped or slower than the natural rate, the rolls pull the cage (held in posiƟon by the release spring) and then release from the surface of the hole.

This allows the pressure of the process to generate a self-feed that draws the tool into the hole.

If syntheƟc or water soluble coolant is not available, a lubricaƟon is sƟll required. A plenƟful supply of lubricant must be fed directly to the tool in order to provide a good flushing and cleaning acƟon. It is recommended to fit a filter to the lubricaƟon system to prevent the circulaƟon of chips, which may cause damage to the burnished surface and/or the tool.

When retracƟng the tool, the release spring ensures the cage is withdrawn from the cone, which removes pressure from the rolls. This allows the tool to be retracted at a high feed rate.
