EDR Honing can be round or chamfer type. The Honing Angle optimal honing or / and land width is approximately 1/2 of the feed. Round Honing Chamfer Honing Flat Land Land is the narrow flat area on the rake or flank face.

Honing size doesn't affect rake wear. 3.Enlarging the honing increases cutting resistance and chattering. When to Decrease Honing Size When to Increase Honing Size u When finishing with small u Hard work material. depth of cut and small feed. u When the cutting edge u Soft work material. strength is required such as u When the work material and for uncut surface cutting and P the machine have poor rigidity. interrupted cutting. u When the machine has high rigidity. *Cemented carbide, coated diamond, and indexable cermet inserts have round honing as standard.
