Boring Head With A Mechanism For Clamping A Displaceable Tool Carrier

A boring head, comprising

• a tool body having a main rotation axis about which the tool body rotates during boring operations;
• a tool carrier arranged in or on the tool body and being displaceable relative to the tool body;
• a clamping mechanism with a clamping element for effecting a clamping force on the tool carrier, in order to prevent a displacement of the tool carrier relative to the tool body during boring operations;
• wherein the clamping mechanism comprises a clamping surface acting directly on an outer surface of tool carrier,
• and wherein
• the clamping surface of the clamping mechanism and/or the outer surface of the tool carrier comprises a high-friction coating, in order to improve the retention force of the clamping mechanism,
• and/or
• the tool carrier and/or the tool body comprises a low-friction coating, in order to facilitate the displacement of the tool carrier relative to the tool body,
• and/or
• the tool carrier and/or the tool body comprises a high-friction coating, in order to avoid undesired displacements of the tool carrier relative to the tool body.
