Bene ts of Edge Honing on a Carbide Tool prior to Coating :

While performing Edge Honing, the brush removes the sharpness and any burr present from
the cutting edge enabling the coating to better adhere to the tool surface. If not honed prior
to coating, the edge can fracture and expose the substrate, shortening the life and effective-

ness of the coating and the tool.
The surface finish of the edge is also improved, reducing friction and allowing for improved-
chip evacuation.
Coating reduces friction, increases the contact area of the cutting edge to the workpiece and
strengthens the tool.
Tools which are not coated can also benefit from the controlled radius applied to the cutting
edge by reducing friction and increasing the contact area of the cutting edge to the work
piece, strengthening the tool.

Process of Edge Honing :

Edge Honing is a dry process achieved by applying
a nylon-abrasive-filament brush to the edges of the
cutting tool. The brush filaments are constructed
from a nylon carrier that is co-extruded with an
abrasive grain. This means that as the brush wears,
new abrasive grains are constantly being exposed
to the workpiece. These flexible brush filaments

act as “flexible files”
Nylon-abrasive brushes can be made from different filaments and are available in many different
diameters depending on the application. The filaments include Aluminum oxide, Ceramic Dia-
mond and IMEXSU Proprietary Filament
