A honing machine, ironically, is relatively inaccurate and compliant.

Examples of stick-slip can be heard from hydraulic cylinders, honing machines etc.

Honing machines are much more compliant than grinders.

In fact, compliance is a requirement of a honing machine that is necessary for the averaging effect to occur.

The path of the stone is not the only difference between grinding and honing machines, they also differ in the stiffness of their construction.

Horizontal Honing Machine targets medium-duty operations.

Berendsen Fluid Power has purpose designed and built their own honing machines, customised for the high levels of precision and accuracy required on specialised engineering projects.

Some grinders have complex movements and are self-truing, and some honing machines are equipped with in-process gaging for size control.

• Honing Machines — Computer Numeric Control (CNC)

A fully automatic honing machine was built in Switzerland to enable the cylinder of the gun to be finished to the quality required to ensure the gun operated perfectly.

Serbian exports to Belarus were pipes, rubber hoses and sleeves, synthetic polymer paints and varnishes, rough-grinding machine tools, honing machines, modular machines for metal processing.

Cylinder bores are deburred and honed to the required size and surface finish using the Halray honing machines and Multi-hone spring flex heads and cloth-backed abrasive tape.

Torque wrenches were being imported and sold alongside of the honing machines because it was known that uneven torque tightening of engine cylinder head bolts would distort the cylinder bore.

All the steps in the sleeving process are simplified by the use of Halray's specially built tooling and equipment such as high speed steel chamfer cutters, honing machines, long stroke press, agitated cleaners and derusting equipment.

In 1942, at the height of World War II, Bill Brodey was engaged in selling various tools and machines including Joseph Sunnen honing machines used for honing cylinder bores of engines.
