BORING
& TAPPING
Boring and tapping are machining processes used to create holes and threads in a variety of materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Boring involves enlarging an existing hole, while tapping involves cutting threads into a hole. Boring and tapping are used in a variety of industries to produce a wide range of products, from machine parts and components to automotive and aerospace components.
Boring and Tapping are specialized on-site machining processes used to repair, refurbish, or create new bores and threads in large industrial equipment such as engines, gearboxes, drive shafts, pipelines, heat exchangers, tanks, and other structural components. These processes involve creating accurate and straight bores and threads to restore the alignment of the equipment, improving its performance and reliability.

Improving performance and reliability
The Boring process involves the use of a boring machine that rotates a cutting tool to remove material from the bore, creating a smooth and straight bore. The Tapping process involves the use of a tapping machine that rotates a tap to create threads in a pre-drilled hole. These processes are used to repair, refurbish, or create new bores and threads in large industrial equipment, providing a cost-effective solution without the need for costly equipment transportation.
