Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0135620A1] A horizontal honing machine for large and small stroke lengths comprises a frame with a guiding bar and a linearly driven sled (4) with a motor (5) for the rotating motion of the honing head (6). The drive of the sled (4) is moved by a direct current motor (1) with servo control and transistor adjustment, whereby the speed and point of reversal of the motion of the sled (4) in the stroke are almost independent from the load of the honing head (6) and are accurately repeating.
