How To Pick The Best Materials For Your Project

Posted by Andrea Wilson on Sep 1, 2025 7:00:00 AM

CNC machining is a complex process that requires careful consideration of the final project parameters and the materials being used. Different metals and polymers require different tools and techniques to achieve the best results, which can have an impact on both your project costs and timescale, and the quality of the finished components. With this in mind, it is essential to understand how to pick the best material for the application.

How Much Should Deep Hole Drilling, Boring And Honing Cost?

Posted by Andrea Wilson on Aug 26, 2025 6:00:00 AM

Have you ever paid over the odds for drilling, boring or honing? If so, you’re certainly not alone. 

Drilling, honing and boring costs are notorious for being something of an arcane secret for people who aren’t ‘in the know’ about the process involved. We have attempted to shed some light on the world of pricing in our latest downloadable e-book: The Guide To Deep Hole Drilling, Boring & Honing Costs. You can download a copy by clicking here.

4 Advantages Of CNC Deep Hole Gundrilling For Enhancing Production Quality

Posted by Andrea Wilson on Aug 5, 2025 9:19:18 AM
CNC deep-hole drilling , also known as CNC gun drilling, is a specialist machining process in which a computer-controlled machine uses a long, precision tool to drill very deep, straight holes. Unlike manual or conventional drilling, which are limited by shallow depth-to-diameter ratios, CNC gundrilling utilises high-pressure coolant and rigid tooling to achieve much greater depths.

How Long Will My Project Take?

Posted by Andrea Wilson on Jul 15, 2025 7:00:00 AM

There are several reasons why you may choose to outsource your drilling and boring work to a specialist company such as Hone-All. It may be that your business doesn’t possess the specialist equipment necessary to complete tasks precisely or quickly enough to meet expected lead times. Alternatively, you may be swamped with orders and don’t have the capacity to fulfil all competing demands at one time. Or, perhaps, you recognise the benefits of trusting a team of drilling and boring specialists to deliver the high standards within your timescale, to help to cement your business’s positive reputation with your customers.
