BB8100 Boring Machine
Packing big boring capability into a compact, modular
machine, maximizing efficiency and minimizing downtime.
Powerful Yet Compact
• Take the power of a stationary machine to the
job site to solve tough machining challenges in
record time.
• Using 11.3 in3 (185.3 cm3) Hydraulic motor,
produces 4783 ft•lb (6484.9 N•m) of torque at
the bar, at 15.1 rpm.
• Compact, modular components allow fast,
easy setup, maximizing efficiencies, and
minimizing downtime.
Versatile and Flexible
• Machines bores from 18.1 - 97.7 inches (459.7
- 2481.6 mm) in diameter, and faces from 14 -
97.7 inches (355.6 - 2481.6 mm) with various
facing attachments.
• ID and End mount bearings feature spherical
taper-lock roller bearings.
• End mount can be fine adjusted by +/- 0.25
inches (6.35 mm) to center the bar.
• Optional dual action boring/facing arms
increase facing range, and allow for both
boring and facing without switching equipment.
Full-length square ways on boring/facing arms
allow for quick positioning anywhere along
the arm. Attaches to the net fit tool carrier by
compression-clamping, to provide maximum
tool stability.
• Machine is highly adjustable. The tool carrier,
half nut, alignment of boring/facing arm,
and tool carriage can each be adjusted to
maximize machining performance.
• Net fit tool carrier can be clamped to bar for
facing operations. For boring operations,
carrier can be adjusted to remove clearance
between carrier and the bar. This flexibility
also ensures maximum rigidity for either
operation
• Net fit tool carrier designed with a split frame
to simplify installation on the boring bar. It can
be configured to use either the boring head set
for boring or facing, or the new boring/facing
arm assembly.
• With leading & trailing boring head configuration,
2 boring heads can be used simultaneously.
• For even greater facing range with longer
radial travel, the new boring/facing arms are
available. Setup is quick & easy, featuring
industry standard quick-change tooling for
both boring and facing operations.
• Highly versatile tool holder block accepts
industry standard tooling with a nominal 1 inch
(25.4 mm) square shank.
• Tool post on the boring/facing arm can be
rotated to provide maximum flexibility in
machining setup (including some cantilevered
configurations).
High Quality Design
• Features a uniquely-designed modular tool
carrier which provides a new level of strength
and rigidity by channeling machining forces
directly to the boring bar through strategically-
located adjustable guide shoes.
• Hard chromed bars, straight to within 0.001
inch per foot (0.0254 per 304.8 mm)
• Optional gun-drilled bars with optical targets
available.
• Adjustable, removable half nut increases net
fit tool carrier flexibility. Easy removal of tool
carrier allows for machining of multiple bores.
• Backlash adjustment nut allows in-the-field
adjustment to eliminate backlash in the tool
carrier, and extend the life of the machine.
