Ohio Broach’s internal broaching service is a very cost-effective method

Horizontal machines are used for internal broaching.

With decades of success in the broaching field, The Ohio Broach & Machine Company has mastered all techniques. Its skills can provide any service that a customer may require, including an internal broaching service, also referred to as traditional broaching. This is a cost-effective method of mass-producing irregular or custom internal forms.

Internal broaching is a particularly efficient means of producing internal forms in the bores of mechanical components, such as keyways, squares, hexes, and splines.

Full range of broaching equipment

Ohio Broach can conduct its internal broaching service with a broad variety of materials, like brass, copper, alloy steel, stainless steel, or aluminum. For this technique, the company uses and sells horizontal internal broaching machines. Machines with the HC model designation have close-grained, high-tensile, one-piece cast iron guide heads, and those with the HF designation use continually welded, thermally stress relieved, fabricated steel guide heads. This equipment is designed and built to ensure the stability and rigidity required in precise tool tracking, while using hardened and ground alloy steel machine ways to guide their machine pull heads.

The staff have equipped the pull heads with precision-ground wear pads that can be easily replaced or adjusted. The front portion of the pull head is designed to slide for vertical tool alignment with the standard two-inch, eight-pitch female thread for broach puller attachment. A key advantage of these horizontal broaching machines is the fast return of the broach pull heads to the starting position.

Not only does Ohio Broach manufacture broaching machines; it also offers turnkey packages with products and services like work-holding tools and broach cutting tools. Clients are welcome to trial-broach components at the company’s ISO 9001-certified facility in Willoughby, OH and then repeat the trial broaching at their own plants. Ohio Broach provides tool sharpening to maintain peak performance as soon as an internal broaching service has begun.

For virtually every project, Ohio Broach has access to a full range of broaching equipment, including special machines for exceptional applications. A solution is always available, from complex tasks to machine sales and sharpening or repairs. Trust Ohio Broach for internal broaching and more.
