Skive Burnish Catalogue 2012 Brochure

The basic principle of Skiving Roller Burnishing is where the skiving tool (a modified floating reamer) produces a geometrically true round bore, a prerequisite for successful roller burnishing.  To date, this process has proven to be the fastest method of ID finishing of seamless or DOM tubing, with average rates of metal removal of 100 up to 150 inches per minute.  Due to certain industry demand, the Skiving/Roller Burnishing tool assembly has become a combination Reaming/Skiving/Roller Burnishing tool assembly, capable of removing up to as much as .250” total stock removal in one operation.
