Easy-to-Use Burnishing Tools Cut Secondary Operations, Set-Ups

June 3, 2020
Burnishing increases surface hardness and resistance to fatigue and failure at stress points for sealing or bearing surfaces, various seats, areas that require pre-stressing, tight diameter tolerances, or areas that require good surface finishes.

MONAGHAN TOOLING GROUP is offering a full line-up of Elliott Tool Technology burnishing tools, which produce a 4 to 8 Ra surface finish in one pass, thus eliminating secondary machining operations and the requisite set-up time and costs. With tooling to burnish ID, OD, ID/OD and flat surfaces, Monaghan offers the tools to handle virtually any burnishing project. 

By improving surface irregularities and tool marks, these easy-to-use tools also eliminate secondary operations, such as grinding, honing, and polishing, thereby cutting project costs and lead times.

Fast cycle times mean that burnishing projects are measured in seconds, not minutes. Speed is coupled with accuracy, as ID burnishing tools produce accurate sizing in 0.0001-in. increments. Roller burnishing results in a 25% size improvement in steel and up to a 50% size improvement in high ductility materials. 

Burnishing increases the surface hardness through the cold working process and compressive forces. It increases metal’s resistance to fatigue and failure at stress points. These benefits make burnishing ideal for sealing or bearing surfaces, various seats, areas that require pre-stressing, tight diameter tolerances or just areas that require good surface finishes.

In addition to custom tooling, Monaghan Tooling Group offers standard tooling for ID multi-roller burnishing, OD carbide roll burnishing, ID/OD carbide roll burnishing, and diamond burnishing. All tooling styles are easy to operate and require limited training. They are easy to maintain and repair, and common repair parts are available from a fully stocked inventory.
