Boring machines are divided into horizontal boring machines, floor boring and milling machines, diamond boring machines and coordinate boring machines.
(1) Horizontal boring machine: a boring machine with the most application and the most extensive performance, suitable for single-piece small batch production and repair workshops.
(2) Floor boring machine and floor boring and milling machine: the feature is that the workpiece is fixed on the floor platform, which is suitable for processing workpieces with large size and weight, and is used in heavy machinery manufacturing plants.
(3) Diamond boring machine: using diamond or cemented carbide tools, with a small feed and a high cutting speed, boring holes with high accuracy and small surface roughness, mainly used in mass production.
(4) Coordinate boring machine: It has a precise coordinate positioning device, which is suitable for processing holes with high requirements for shape, size and hole spacing accuracy, and can also be used for marking, coordinate measurement and graduation, etc., which is used in tool workshops and small and medium-sized batch production. Other types of boring machines include vertical turret boring and milling machines, deep hole boring machines, and boring machines for automobile and tractor repair.
