Finishing of EPS Ball Screw Racks

Over the years, hydraulic steering systems in passenger vehicles have been replaced by electromechanically-supported EPS (Electronic Power Steering) systems to improve performance and compatibility with drive-assist systems.
The components of these systems require very precise machining and finishing processes, and this is where the superfinishing products of Meister Abrasives and Alfons Schmeier come to the fore, as the requirements are not just met by the parameters set on the machine, but also through optimised tool specification.
A technical article was recently published that describes these tools and their advantages in detail and illustrates the achievable results with a case study.
