A Tour Of The Sensenich Facility
Boring & Chamfering
The forging is placed in the boring machine onto a centering pin and clamped. There are five steps used in this process which has a tolerance of .0012 inches (A wooden propeller will expand and contract several times that dimension!):
- First rough bore
- Second rough bore
- Final bore
- Rolling operation to burnish the metal
- Chamfer tool--needed to break the sharp edges of the bore so it can seat properly on the engine flange.
