Honing with Good surface finish
Honing is a type of abrasive process typically used to finish the interior of a cylinder. Rather than using an abrasive wheel as in grinding, a hone uses several flat stones arranged around a mandrel that moves in and out of the hole. For vertical or horizontal honing, the tool reciprocates through the hole, while in a single-pass finishing system there may be an indexing table with tools of expanding width that each move through the hole once. Either way, the process is the same.
Because honing is a slower process than grinding, heat and pressures are lower. This means that honing provides better size and geometry control. Hones are incredibly accurate and can finish a part to within 0.001 µ (the width of a bacterium). In fact, single-pass hones are so consistent and so accurate that they are usually not gaged.
