Honing - The preparation of cutting edges by brushing
Brushing and polishing technology is an established, process-reliable method for targeted edge preparation of precision components. It is used wherever defined edge radii, homogeneous surfaces, and long service life are crucial for component functionality and economic efficiency.
Using state-of-the-art brushing technology, reproducible micro-roundings down to 0.01 mm can be achieved. At the same time, edges are smoothed and polished without uncontrolled changes to component geometry.
Our edge preparation solutions are used in a wide range of industries, including watchmaking, tool manufacturing and high-performance machining, and medical technology.
Edge quality has a decisive influence on wear, functionality, and service life of components and tools. Targeted edge preparation by brushing:
• reduces micro-damage and chipping
• minimizes burr formation
• extends tool life and maintenance intervals
Depending on the application, tool life can be increased by 30 to 300% while improving overall process stability.
We develop and supply brush polishing machines and tailored processes for industrial edge preparation, with a strong focus on reproducibility, process reliability, and cost-effective integration into existing production environments.
Your benefits
• Defined, functional edges instead of uncontrolled rounding
• High repeatability
• Technology applicable across multiple industries
• Scalable from single parts to series production
Brushing-based edge preparation is therefore a key technology for demanding manufacturing processes – regardless of industry or component geometry.
