Burnishing Technology – Roller Burnishing Tools / Diamonds Burnishing Tools

A wide range of burnishing tools, both by using hardened rollers or diamond tips, to achieved by turning a polished surface with a height reduction of roughness.

Introduction of burnishing
Burnishing is a machining technique in which a tool is pressed on the surface of a part of lower hardness, crushing the microscopic ridges generated in machining by chip removal and thus reducing its roughness.

This crushing of the ridges displaces the material from the ridges to the valleys and evens out the unevenness. The result of this operation is the generation of a polished surface, with a significantly lower surface roughness.

Advantages Of Burnishing

  • Versatile and easy to use system.
  • Obtaining burnished surfaces in a fast and efficient way.
  • Alternative to grinding. It allows obtaining very low roughness working on the lathe, which in many occasions makes unnecessary the grinding process.
  • Significant reduction of roughness. In some applications, the reduction can be higher than 90%. Ra<0.2 can be obtained.
  • Slight hardening of the workpiece surface.
  • Improved corrosion resistance due to reduction of surface pores.
  • Reduced abrasion resistance due to the lower friction offered by a burnished surface.
  • Elimination of surface marks.
  • Economical process with low spare parts consumption.
  • Fast process with high Vc rates.
  • No waste.
