Boelter International LLC is a manufacturer that offers a range of bore honing machines for use in hydraulic cylinder repair. This page explains the differences between the H-20 and the H-50, which is best suited for long bore workpieces, and the operational features of each. Please use it to assist you in comparing models based on your own comparison criteria.
Boelter International LLC products are bore honing machines that use honing stones to precisely re-polish the interior walls of hydraulic cylinders. These are specialized devices whose usage objectives and structures differ from gear honing machines, which are used to finish gear tooth faces, and surface honing machines, which are used to polish the exteriors of cylindrical workpieces.
They have horizontal carriages on which long cylindrical workpieces are mounted and slid, and hydraulic drives with steady high force outputs, so you can perform stable honing even on long workpieces.
These machines' auto-tensioners automatically manage honing stone pressure, reducing the amount of inconsistency in finishing that results from feeling-based manual adjustment. Even when work is done by different operators, these machines keep the processing conditions the same, helping produce more consistent quality.
Their oil flow systems separate polishing oil from metal debris and help reduce the workload involved in day-to-day maintenance.
Boelter International LLC's honing machines are suited for use in worksites that want to perform interior finishing for long cylinders in-house, without subcontracting, and achieve a high level of operational stability. If you're doing this work using manual tools and struggle with uneven finishes or a high degree of reliance on individual operators, then switching to one of these floor-standing models can help you improve your quality and achieve a higher level of reproducibility.
Device capabilities and manufacturer support requirements vary from business to business, differing for precision components, large components and heavy industry, and component repair and processing.
We have carefully selected the honing machines that are best suited to companies based on the features and challenges of their varied businesses, freeing them from needing to rely on specific operators. Please use the information on this site in your comparisons and deliberations.

The H-20 is well-suited for factories that want to perform repairs for long cylinders, which can't be handled through variable processing such as hand-held tool processing, using floor-standing, stable equipment. The H-20 is 6,100 mm long, making it more compact than the H-50 (at 15,240 mm). This makes it a highly viable option for factories with installation space limitations. It is a good choice for factories which receive a steady number of construction machinery repair and hydraulic cylinder refurbishment orders but which have few orders for ultra-long workpieces.

The H-50 has a stroke length of 7,160 mm, so it is suited for repairing cylinders with total lengths of several meters, such as those used in cranes, large power shovels, and special machinery. The machine is large, with a total length of 15,240 mm, so installation requires a good deal of installation space. The H-50 is a more suitable choice than the H-20 for factories with a relatively high percentage of repair orders for long cylinders and factories whose primarily operations involve repairs for large construction machinery.

Boelter International LLC's website indicates its telephone number, email address, U.S. address, and business hours. It also indicates that the company ships worldwide. You can easily confirm what contact point should be used from overseas. However, the website does not contain information regarding the company's local support system in India or its ability to deal with issues such as time zone differences, transport costs, or language issues. We recommend contacting Boelter International LLC directly about compatibility with local power standards (voltage and frequency), large equipment transportation requirements, and installation requirements before placing an order.
Boelter International LLC's website states that the auto-tensioner's tools are compatible with Sunnen tools, and it indicates supplies such as diamond honing stones and polishing pads. Sunnen tools are widely used in the honing tool field. Due to this compatibility, supplies can be procured from a wide range of suppliers.

BS-VI standards and growing EV demand are driving unprecedented needs for precision machining.
While the "overseas components + local assembly" model keeps initial costs low, design mismatches and unclear accountability create long-term risks.
Integrated management from design to assembly ensures consistent machining accuracy regardless of operator, minimizing material loss, accelerating ROI, and building the foundation for global trust.

This honing machine synchronizes stroke and stone expansion in 0.1 μm increments, enabling precision honing of holes as small as 3 mm in diameter and 80 mm deep, even in hard materials.
Automatic electronic control and made-to-order jigs reproduce the techniques of veteran operators.
These honing machines eliminate deviations in the manufacturing of precision components such as control valves while also reducing personnel costs.

Machine height can be reduced through pit installation, reducing the footprint and using less volumetric space. It also makes it easy to mount and unmounts heavy objects such as engine blocks, reducing the operation workload.
They can even cut the large machining allowances unique to heavy industry in short amounts of time.

A graph showing the status of the hole being honed is displayed on-screen, in real time. This makes it easy to visually understand where the workpiece is and how it is warped, accelerating repair decisions.
These systems can store up to 100 processing settings at any time. They can also be backed up via USB, so even for small-lot, high-mix jobs, you can instantly reproduce the same processing as in previous jobs. They also shorten set-up times.
