Tubular based components are used in tens of thousands of applications by manufacturers in a wide range of sectors. These components vary enormously in size, capacity and use, but the method by which each is made is broadly similar.

The precision engineering methods used to make industrial tubes and shafts include deep hole drilling, deep hole boring, gun drilling, CNC turning and CNC honing.

Deep hole boring may not be a well-known term outside the engineering sector, but its positive impact and contribution to many areas of everyday life cannot be denied. A highly specialised process in modern manufacturing that helps to produce components with tight tolerances, precision boring is crucial for many different industries, facilitating the production of highly accurate, reliable, and durable tubular components for a wide variety of applications.

Hydraulic systems are present on all types of aircraft, providing vital control to a range of systems and components, including landing gear, steering, thrust reversers, and cargo doors. Hydraulic failures are inconvenient and costly but, more importantly, may cause serious threats to flight safety such as a loss of control, the inability to extend or retract flaps, or problems raising or lowering landing gear.

Deep hole boring is a machining process in which holes are drilled with a depth to diameter ratio in excess of 100:1. The process is used to create bores in a range of materials, from aermet to aluminium to superalloys, and has applications in a variety of industries, including:

Manufacturing enterprises within the UK's engineering sector continue to be significant contributors to the economy. In 2023, the manufacturing industry's Gross Value Added (GVA) was approximately £199.8 billion.

CNC honing is an excellent way to achieve tighter tolerances and better surface finishes on a wide range of precision machined components with a round bore. Here's a simple guide to this sophisticated process.

At Hone All, we combine the latest cutting-edge deep hole drilling technology with superior technical knowledge to provide precise machining solutions. Our gundrilling services offer an accurate, cost-effective solution for businesses, matched by rapid response times.
