Originally
formed as a sub-contract honing company, Hone-All Precision
discovered a recurring problem experienced by the purchasers and
specifiers of sub-contract machining: In order to produce a single
component, it was often necessary to involve several companies to
complete it. This resulted in increased costs and administration and
wasted valuable time. Hone-All became the UK's leading
Deep Hole Boring Company specialising in Boring Services, Hole
Boring, Deep Hole Drilling and much more...
The
investment in new technology, CNC machine tools, deep hole boring
and deep hole drilling equipment, premises and Inspection facilities
was specifically tailored to ensure we could meet and exceed the
requirements of our customers to ensure their, and our,
competitiveness.
This investment also included working toward the Business Excellence
Model, Best Practice, and Lean manufacturing techniques. These
enabled new perspectives and processes to develop in order to ensure
that our levels of service matched the unique and extensive range
offered.
The result is a single source manufacturer able to supply materials
and completely machine components up to 3 metres in length to the
highest quality standards and within one facility. This ensures the
control of cost and quality, effective communication and
traceability second to none. This combined with a positive
commitment to excellent customer service; effective communication
through teamwork and partnerships ensures the highest standards of
service and quality at the most competitive rates.
Deep holes
are defined by a high ratio between hole depth and hole diameter.
Deep-hole drilling is the preferred method for drilling hole depths
of more than 10 x the diameter up to 150 x diameter.

Deep hole
boring is the process used to produce large, precision bores using
specialist drill heads and indexable tooling to achieve close
tolerances, excellent accuracy and very good surface finishes over
very long lengths. The petrochemical, hydraulic and aerospace
industries are the largest customers for deep hole boring as they
often require precision tubing in sizes and specifications that are
unavailable to purchase from stock. For bores smaller than 20mm
diameter, deep hole drilling or hole boring would usually be the
preferred process. |

Deep Hole
Drilling, often referred to also as Hole Boring, is the process used
to produce precision round bores using specialist gundrill tools to
achieve close tolerances, good surface finishes and greater accuracy
over longer lengths than conventional drilling. It is most often
used to produce bores from 2mm to 25mm diameter and therefore is
most commonly utilised by within the Aerospace, Automotive and
Medical industries where smaller components are required. To produce
diameters in excess of 25mm, deep hole boring would be the most
preferred process. |
