Broaching is one of the type of machining process in

which material from the work piece is removed in the
form of layers of desired width and depth.
Cutting tool used in this process is known as
BROACH.
Broach is a tapered tool on which teeth are cut.
Material is removed by pushing or pulling action of
tool.
Key ways, splines, clutch plates etc can be machined
by broaching.

Principle of working:

Work piece is fixed on fixture and broach is pulled or pushed.

Sharp edges of broach penetrate into work piece and due to
shearing action plastic deformation of work piece takes place and
metal removes in form of chips.

1) According to type of operation:

-External broach
-Internal broach

2) According to method of Operation:

-Push broach
-Pull broach

3) According to type of construction: -Solid broach

-built up broach
-inserted tooth
-Progressive broach
4) According to Function :

-Key way broach

-Surface broach
-Spline broach
-Round Hole Broach

Types of broaching machines

A)According to direction of broach travel.

1) Horizontal broaching machine
2) Vertical broaching machine
B)According to Method of operation.
1) Pull broaching machine
2) Push broaching machine
3) Surface broaching machine
4) Continuous broaching machine
C)According to Method of drive.
1) Mechanical Drive machine
2) Pneumatic drive machine
3) Hydraulic drive machine
D)According to type of operation.
1) External broaching machine
2) Internal broaching machine

 Horizontal broaching machine.

Usually pull type.

Used for internal and external broaching.

Bed is approximately double size than broach stroke

Ram is hydraulically operated.

Used to make keyways, splines, slots etc.

Advantages of broaching:
1)High production rate.
2)Job is prepared in one stroke
3)High tool life
4)Internal and external machining can be done
5)0.8micron finishing can be obtained
6)Interchangeability of components can be done due to
tolerances obtained in range.
7)Roughing and finishing can be done in single stroke

Disadvantages of broaching:
1) Costly tool
2) Not suitable for small batch.
3) Less amount of material is removed
4) Proper fixtures are required.
5) Strains are produced in w/p
6) Surfaces should be parallel to broach
travel axis.

Applications of Broaching
Machine1) key ways, splined shaft,surface broaching can be
machined.
2) Used to produce wide range of parts rifle and gun
manufacture.
3) Manufacturing of parts of aircraft engines and
structures
4) special gears, bushing and sleeves, rotors, turbine
blades, compressor wheels, chain sprocket teeth etc.
5) Automobile parts like crank cases, cylinder head,
connecting rods, caps, power steering pistons are
machined by broach
