An electric broaching press 1 with electric cylinder 4 having a ball nut assembly with internal linear guide way support 5 is presented herewith. The ball nut assembly 5 is driven by electric motor 2 through set of pullies 4a. Rotational motion generated by the electric motor 2 is transmitted into linear motion by a ball screw and nut assembly 8. The ball screw and nut assembly 8 comprises a ball nut 8a, a ball nut housing 8b, and a ball screw 8c. The ball screw 8c transmits the rotational energy in to linear energy to a piston rod 12. The piston rod 12 causes vertical displacement and is attached to a cantilever support structure 20a holding broach tool to carry out broaching operation.

A broaching machine may include a broaching tool and a moving mechanism. The broaching tool may be movably arranged in a spindle of a lathe in a horizontal direction to machine a workpiece fixed to a chucking mechanism of the lathe. The moving mechanism may move the broaching tool in the horizontal direction. Thus, a process for forming a hole through the workpiece using the lathe and a process for machining the inner surface of the hole using the broaching machine may be continuously performed so that a time for machining the workpiece may be remarkably reduced. Further, the process for forming the hole through the workpiece using the lathe and the process for machining the inner surface of the hole using the broaching machine may be continuously performed on the workpiece fixed to the chucking mechanism to suppress dimension failures of the workpiece.

A broaching tool, comprising a shank, a body and a cutting head that comprises at least one rake face. The rake face comprises a cutting edge that comprises a cutting corner at a forward end of the cutting head. The rake face is configured such that upon simultaneously rotating the broaching tool about the axis of the broaching tool and advancing the broaching tool along the axis of the broaching tool in a forward direction, the first corner travels in a first circular helix pattern. Also, a method of forming one or more grooves in a bore-containing structure, the method comprising simultaneously rotating a broaching tool and a bore-containing structure relative to one another about the axis, and moving the broaching tool and the bore-containing structure relative to one another along the axis. Also, methods of making broaching tools, and broaching machines.

A device for keyway broaching is provided with a housing, a drive shaft, a broaching carriage received and supported in the housing, a tool support connected to the broaching carriage, and a crank drive that couples the drive shaft and the broaching carriage with each other. The broaching carriage, when driven by the drive shaft, performs an oscillating movement comprising a cutting movement and a return stroke. A sleeve is arranged between the housing and the broaching carriage. A first seal is provided between the housing and the sleeve and/or between the sleeve and the broaching carriage. The tool support is connected to the broaching carriage with a rocking lever interposed between the tool support and the broaching carriage. The drive shaft has a control section that controls a relative movement between the rocking lever and the broaching carriage.
