A honing tool (100) for machining an inner face of a bore in a workpiece with the aid of at least one honing operation comprises a tool body (110) that defines a tool axis (112); a first cutting group (160-1), attached to the tool body, having a plurality of radially feedable first carriers (150-1) that are feedable radially with respect to the tool axis (112) by means of an associated first cutting group feeding system (170-1), wherein each first carrier covers, on its radial outer side, a circumferential angle range of at least 20° and carries, on its outer side (154), a single first cutting material body that is wide in the circumferential direction or a plurality of narrow first cutting material bodies (140-1), which are arranged in a manner spaced apart from one another; and a second cutting group (160-2), attached to the tool body, having a plurality of radially feedable second carriers (150-2) that are feedable radially with respect to the tool axis (112), independently of the first carriers (150-1), by means of an associated second cutting group feeding system (170-2), wherein each second carrier (150-2) carries, on its radial outer side (154), a single narrow second cutting material body (140-1, 140-2). All the cutting material bodies (140-1, 140-2) of the first and the second cutting group are arranged in an axially short cutting region (130) that has a length, measured in the axial direction, which is much less than an effective outside diameter of the cutting groups with the cutting material bodies fully retracted.

A surface treating apparatus for treating an inner surface of a bore containing a shaft may include a body connectable to a drive apparatus and configured to movably receive a shaft extending through a bore, and at least one surface treating member connected to and movable with the body relative to the shaft, the at least one surface treating member sized to be inserted within an annular gap formed between the shaft and an inner surface of the bore and to bear against the inner surface of the bore when the shaft is received by the body.

A tool system for configuring honing tools includes at least one tool body that defines a tool axis and an axial bore arranged coaxially to the tool axis, as well as multiple transverse bores oriented perpendicular to the tool axis, wherein the transverse bores form multiple groups around the circumference of the tool body, each group having at least two axially spaced apart transverse bores. The tool system further includes multiple sets of support rail units with guide pins for introducing into transverse bores of a bore group, and also includes at least one set of bolt guide elements for mounting on the tool body, with each set having a bolt guide element for each transverse bore provided for receiving a guide bolt, with a guide bore formed therein, which, when the bolt guide element is mounted on the tool body, runs coaxially with the transverse bore.
