Horizontal Offset for Honing
This feature is designed to offset the cutter at a certain height in the lower bore to cut out block web
intrusions to make room for the honing process.
Checking this box will bring up another value to be entered on the left hand side of the screen.
Start Offset Height
This is the vertical depth at which the cutter will shift to the side to start cutting.
Horizontal Offset
This is the distance the cutter will offset from the bore center.
Change Speeds at Horizontal Offset
Often the clearance cut is much larger that the cut for the rest of the bore. For this you can check this box
and enter a different RPM and Feed Rate. If a different speed and feed are not need do not check this
box and the same feed and speed will be used that was used to bore the cylinder.
For each bank (of a V Block) you can select the direction the offset should go.
Washout Cycle
Checking this box will open another window on the right hand side of the screen. Here you can enter
the RPM and number of revolutions that will be performed when the cutter reaches the Bottom of Bore
position. In Through Boring this is not generally used. This is used when a certain type of finish is
required on a counter bore or the bottom of a sleeve cut.
Stop and Index Spindle after Cycle
Checking this box will cause the spindle to be indexed to the three O’clock position after the cylinder
has been bored but before it retracts. It will also offset to the left before the tool is retracted. This is the
default setting. You would not want this check in an operation such as Lifter Boring.
