Roller Burnishing Tools Increase Productivity

IN ORDER TO DELIVER COST EFFECTIVE, EFFICIENT, TIME SENSITIVE SERVICES TO OUR CUSTOMERS, WE HAVE TO ENSURE EQUIPMENT, MATERIALS AND RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE WHEN NEEDED.

The partnership we have with Monaghan/Elliott has enabled us to source and acquire specific tooling quickly and efficiently. The effect of which has resulted in a decrease in turnaround times, while still providing products of exceptional quality. Here at Mollart we are very aware of the balance to be had between quick turnaround times and quality and ensure neither are compromised. Monaghan supply us with a range of tooling products such as Elliott Roller Burnishing tools, which are beneficial in reducing production times significantly, on large batch manufacturing and for providing durable fine finished components.

 

The Benefits Of Using Roller Burnishing Tools

Burnishing tools have gained popularity in recent years and are particularly useful for providing fine finishes to metal components. The use of roller burnishing technology has a number of benefits to the overall production process, these being:

Single Pass Operation : Secondary operations are eradicated, resulting in reduced manufacturing cycle times. The process can be carried out on the primary machine that conducted the previous machined operation. This increases productivity and decreases cost.

Less Waste - Reduced Rejections: Roller Burnishing enables close tolerances and consistent dimensional tolerance in mass produced products. The result of which is improved accuracy in size, resulting in more components passing quality inspections and therefore less waste.    

Dimensional Consistency: Assembling issues are eliminated due to dimensions being maintained within tolerances, even when parts are mass produced in their thousands.

Increased Surface Hardness and Durability: Roller Burnishing is a cold rolling procedure, this provided increased wear resistance on metal components made for example from aluminium.  Products therefore last longer due to their durability.

Enhanced Surface Finish: The technique of using pressure in the roller burnishing process smooths out surface irregularities, leaving a mirror like surface that is resistant to corrosion .

 

Roller Burnishing Tools Increase Efficiency

Here at Mollart among other tooling providers, we use Elliott Roller Burnishing Tools to provide chipless machining and cold working of surfaces to create high specification surface finishes, eliminating the grinding process.  The ease of sourcing these tools from Monaghan has created added efficiency to our process. This coupled with the ability for roller burnishing tools to accurately mass produce products that are tough, durable, and of a high quality finish represents an excellent cost effective means of manufacture.
