ATA Garryson Case Study; How a Custom Made Bur Gave a 2000% Improvement in Tool Life

An automotive plant, which produces 3,000 engine blocks a day, needed assistance improving a machining application inside the engine block. The engine block has a small 40-degree angled cavity, which requires deburring on the exit side. It is located inside the block and is not accessible with a standard bur. The customer was previously using a steel brush that compresses through the cavity and expands on the inside. However, the brush only lasted for approximately 15 work pieces before it started to show signs of wear and premature failure.
