In external honing we machine the outer surfaces of cylindrical workpieces such as piston rods, shafts, axles and rolls. Honing removes very little material, improves geometry (roundness, straightness, cylindricity) and produces a uniform, smooth surface.
Because the workpiece does not heat up during honing, the structure of the surface layer remains unchanged. The characteristic cross-hatch pattern retains lubricant well, extending the service life of seals and sliding elements.
We perform external honing on parts from Φ50 to Φ450 mm in diameter and up to 10 m in length.
