DeHoff G560-B1 Custom Machine

The DeHoff G560-B1 is a custom machine designed to form the rifling grooves in gun barrels. The barrel is rotated by a 3-jaw chuck while a rifling button tool is pulled through the barrel by a hydraulic cylinder. The button tool deforms the rifling grooves into the internal bore of the barrel using a swaging process. All the rifling grooves are cold-formed in a single pass.

Cutting Tools and Chucks Optimized for Machining Connecting Rods

Connecting rods are highly stressed engine parts. To take account of downsizing and the reduction of CO2 emissions, connecting rods are also becoming increasingly lighter. This is achieved on the one hand through the use of high-strength and innovative materials, and on the other hand through modern production processes. This also changes the shape of the connecting rods and the variety of shapes increases. MAPAL offers the complete process for machining different types of connecting rods – whether on the transfer line or the machining center, as well as for wet or MQL machining.
