How often have you progressed or completed your project and had to face hidden or additional, unexpected costs?

whether it's transportation or documentation related, or what you receive is not exactly as described, it can be the difference between making profit or suffering a costly loss.

Over the years, Hone-All have been told our quotations are too detailed, accused of giving away our intellectual property by describing our operation sequence and were once even told we asked too many questions before we quoted and so would no longer receive RFQ’s!

We don’t believe you can ask too many questions in this industry as the simplest mistake or omission can win or lose a customer or a contract.

As a result, when Hone-All quote for you, we will ask all of the relevant questions, including the end purpose or requirement as we aren’t just interested in our operation – we want to ensure you achieve the quality you and your customers’ demand.

And we will explain on the quote exactly what we intend to do so you know fully and accurately what we are quoting for and why our cost represents true value and a commitment to absolute quality!

As CNC machines advance and the technology of the tips and tools available increases, the need for honing has reduced in many applications. However, no matter how far the improvements go, there will always be a need for honing for a variety of reasons.

It could be a particular finish is required for oil retention, or for the free flow of a piston, honing will achieve exactly what you need - to tolerances of tenths of microns and to mirror finishes you can see your face in!

The technology is highly specialist and as a result, quite expensive in relation to other more common processes, but that's why you need to speak to a specialist provider like Hone-All and get the experts with the knowledge, expertise and equipment to satisfy all of the requirements of your project!

Call us today and let us talk you through our 20+ honing machines and their capabilities!

There was a time when the name Hone-All spoke for itself.

It wasn’t hard to explain what we did, and everyone knew what to come to us for.
Despite all of our hard work communicating, marketing, and exhibiting over the years, we still have some customers who think we still only do honing.

It was due to the amazing expertise of our engineers and the excellent quality they achieved which resulted in us diversifying into creating the bores we would then hone – because our customers demanded it!

This then led to them asking if we could turn the drilled & honed bar true or complete to shorten their supply chain or reduce costs or simply because they didn’t have capacity in-house.

As a result, we are now the leading supplier for complex, tubular components.

When does a hole become a deep hole?

Generally, the industry says a hole becomes a deep hole when the depth is ten times the diameter.

But here at Hone-All, with an exceptional team, and with decades of deep hole drilling experience, we would say more like one hundred times the diameter classifies it as deep! And even then, 100 times is not really a challenge…

Experience, expertise, retained knowledge alongside technical excellence, all result in Hone-All continually reinforcing our exceptional reputation as the leading provider of sub-contract drilling, honing and turning services in the UK.

Ensuring our customers always get the very best result, not just on the process we’re carrying out, but for their processes to follow, means we really are the machining business with a “hole” new approach!

We absolutely love this industry!

We love the history, the diversity, the expertise, and the ability we have to react and respond to whatever is thrown at us.

What we don’t love are some of our engineering drawings….

It’s reassuring to know some things don’t change, but when vague drawings are supplied, drawn in the 1900s, or the same drawing and issue is supplied by two different customers and the parameters are different on each, it’s a challenge.

That’s why we take our time with our quotations.

It’s why we map all of our processes on each and every quotation, despite the fact that we know only a percentage will convert.

Is it a waste of time? Some would say yes.

For us, carrying out that Contract Review activity on each and every quotation ensures that quality issues are caught and resolved at the very early stage and therefore production is not impacted once delivery promises have been made. Quality at every stage, including the quotation.

We believe we have the winning formula of professionalism, advanced technology and industry expertise and it’s all at your disposal.

Deep hole boring is a highly specialised service and despite few businesses offering the service on a sub-contract basis, it is used across all industries and applications.

The expense of the equipment, coupled with the vast selection of tooling stock required, result in it being more financially viable for businesses to subcontract the operation to specialists like us, rather than invest £1m+ to achieve a broad size range – never mind the technical expertise required.

As a result, its technical characteristics and requirements are not taught at technical colleges and are therefore not widely known…

We pride ourselves in offering quotations that not only meet but exceed, your needs and to do that, we have to have the full picture as so many parameters can affect the overall quality of the part you wish us to produce and not necessarily just at our stage of machining.

We consider every stage of manufacture when quoting to ensure you don’t just get a quality product from us, but a quality component which allows easier and more accurate machining further down your production route.

Here we explain what we need to know as a minimum, and more importantly, why. - https://hubs.ly/Q042r65L0

Gundrilling is one of those processes that sounds so simple and yet the reality is far from it.

The applications for gundrilling are vast and many of the things you use or experience in your daily life will have had gundrilling or deep hole drilling somewhere in it's development or production.

From moulds for Maltesers through to the shaft which drives the wheels on your car, it's an amazing process which deserves greater recognition than it gets.

From 3mm to 25mm up to 2500mm in length, e-mail us today at [email protected] and let us provide the solutions to all your drilling problems!

CNC honing is regarded as a black art by many and using the latest CNC technology is often considered to be the best and most accurate form of machining.

However, there are times when only the skills and expertise of a highly qualified and experienced engineer will achieve the most exacting surface finishes and tolerances. Here we explain when and why the two differing processes are best utilised and add weight to the argument that sometimes, technology will never beat the human hand! - https://hubs.ly/Q03ZBFn60

CNC honing is an excellent way to achieve tighter tolerances and better surface finishes on a wide range of precision machined components with a round bore. Here's a simple guide to this sophisticated process.

In recent years, there’s been plenty of discussion around the advantages of digital technologies for businesses. Whilst we totally agree, it’s often overlooked that one of the biggest barriers to digital transformation for SMEs isn’t just cost, but the fear factor.

Many systems are overly complex and extremely expensive. The worry that operations will be interrupted, or that significant time and resource will be needed to transfer and input existing data, often leads to delays in decision-making — or no decision at all. As a result, many businesses are left working with outdated systems that restrict growth, hinder performance monitoring, and hold back future progression.

Here we chat about the production control system we use at Hone-All, which has not only transformed and streamlined how we operate, but has also increased margins and improved monitoring and traceability to Rolls Royce and 9100 standards.

Recent research indicates that 96% of UK manufacturers feel there has been an underinvestment in digitisation in their sector.

CNC gundrilling opens up a wide product range for parameters over and above conventional gundrilling including the drilling of waterways on mould plates, engine heads, glass cooling noses, tubing hangers and once upon a time, even a Malteser mould!

We’ve also CNC gundrilled prototype wings for a large Aeroplane manufacturer!

The applications are huge but the technical understanding not so expansive due to the rarity of the machines, and the expertise available to machine to exceptional quality standards.
