A horizontal boring mill is a machine tool which bores holes in a horizontal direction. Kuraki boring mills use a rigid precision Kuraki Boring Mill spindle to machine holes it to a vertically standing workpiece. The machines typically handle large and heavy workpieces used in the automotive, energy, aerospace and military industries. Kuraki boring mills are built to be durable and with standing heavy machining forces.

3. A horizontal boring mill is a
machine tool which is used to
rough machine & bore holes
in a horizontal direction.

4. Horizontal Boring Mills such as Kuraki’s KBH series also
preform efficient mold roughing and finishing utilizing a
15,000 RPM 50 taper spindle.

5. Boring mills machine large – heavy work pieces.

6. Boring mills are used in the following industries:
transportation - mining - oil & gas - energy - aerospace - defense

7. Kuraki boring mills are built to be
durable while withstanding heavy
machining forces.

8. Kuraki castings are hand
scrapped resulting in
highly flat and accurate
finishes.
Its quality manufacturing
and highly precise
controlled movements
result in precision and
consistent part accuracy.

9. Spindle Size:
The larger the spindle
diameter, the stronger the
twisting rigidity becomes for
heavy-duty cutting. For
machining soft materials like
aluminum, a high speed quill
spindle is recommended.

10. Workpiece Weight and Size:
It’s critical that the workpiece to be machined matches
the machine table size (worktable size) and allowable
mass. Select a bigger size than expected, not an exact
size for the workpiece, so that the optimal machine
performance can be performed.
