Custom Carbide Step Reamers

Carbide Step Reamers Engineered Around Your Bore and Process

SUNDI develops custom carbide step reamers from the part drawing and actual cutting conditions. We confirm each finished diameter, cutting allowance, material, machine setup, fixture clearance and coolant before releasing the tool specification.

Why the Part Drawing Is Not Enough

The finished bore depends on the cutting stock, machine setup and coolant—not only the dimensions on the drawing.

Stock varies at each stepWe set the cutting allowance for each edge from the pre-hole and finished diameters.
The tool must fit the machineWe check the holder, reach, runout, fixture clearance and coolant supply.
Grinding needs one approved specificationWe use the approved dimensions and geometry for grinding, inspection and the first trial.

Engineering Review Before Production

We check six conditions before grinding starts

These checks prevent avoidable size, finish, clearance and tool-life problems.

Lock the finished-bore requirements

Confirm every diameter, tolerance, surface finish and chamfer.

Set stock for every cutting edge

Match each cutting edge to the pre-hole and stock allowance.

Check the machine and holder

Check the spindle interface, reach, runout and available clearance.

Check fixture support

Check clamping, wall thickness and support around the bore.

Plan coolant and chip flow

Match flute direction and coolant outlets to hole depth and pressure.

Set the trial and inspection plan

Agree the starting parameters, inspection method and acceptance target.

Production and Quality Control

From released specification to ground geometry

We check the grinding setup, then produce the critical step geometry on Walter equipment.

Prepare the grinding job

Check the carbide blank, program, wheel setup and dimensional references.

Grind the critical geometry

Grind the step diameters, guide sections, flutes and cutting edges.

Quality Control During and After Grinding

Measure during production. Release after final inspection.

We measure during grinding, correct measurable deviation and inspect again before release.

Measure and correct during production

Check diameters, step lengths, runout and specified geometry before completion.

Final inspection and release

Record the specified results and release the tool only after inspection passes.

Custom Step Reamer Quotation

Start with your part drawing

Send the drawing, material, tolerance and production target. We will review the step geometry and machine conditions before quoting.

Drawings and uploads are treated as confidential project information.

Application Support and Verified Value

We support the first trial and stable production

We check the bore result, tool life and process when performance changes.

Qualify the bore result

Check diameters, step relationships and surface finish.

Measure accepted tool life

Count accepted parts before the agreed wear or regrind limit.

Diagnose and correct

Check the edge, runout, holder, fixture, coolant and parameters.

Confirm production value

Compare bore quality, accepted tool life and cost per accepted part.

Material Application Range

Match the carbide, coating and coolant to the material and cutting conditions.

K

Cast iron

Engine, pump, hydraulic and industrial component bores.

P

Steel

Match grade, coating and coolant to hardness and stock.

N

Selected aluminum

Use carbide selectively; evaluate PCD for abrasive or high-silicon grades.

APPLICATION SUPPORT · VERIFIED IN PRODUCTION

From first trial to stable production

We support tool qualification on the machine, review the production result and agree the next adjustment when required. This hydraulic pump application is one verified example.
