Displacement (µm) Unique anti-vibration mechanism in the tool body reduces vibration during deep hole boring with long overhangs of up to L/D = 10 Vibration Dampening Mechanism When cutting forces create vibration on boring bar set up with long overhangs, the bar’s dampening mechanism counters the tool’s motion and cancels the vibration. The dampening mechanism consists of a weight supported by spring elements. The vibrations die out quickly eliminating noise and chatter marks. - Tool vibrations with and without - Concept image of dampening vibration damper Springs 0.6 w / o damper 0.4 0.2 w / damper 0.0 weight -0.2 -0.4 -0.6 0 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 Springs Time (sec.) Standard Lineup BoreMeister is comprised of the anti-vibration bar and interchangeable boring head, featuring serrated interfaces for high precision indexing. They are connected by screws, allowing the fitting of a wide range of cutting heads for great flexibility. - Minimum bore diameter : ø20 mm Anti-vibration bar Boring head Serration Reference pages: D014 - D015, D026 - D027, D048 - D049, D052 - D053, D066 - D067, D070 - D071 D012 www.tungaloy.com
