The Rottler H85AXY is one of the most advanced CNC-controlled vertical honing machines available, designed for shops that demand the highest level of automation, precision, and flexibility. Building on the capabilities of the H85AX, the H85AXY adds a fully programmable Y-axis movement, allowing the honing head to automatically position itself in both X and Y directions for multi-cylinder layouts — including offset bore engines, industrial cylinders, and large diesel blocks.
The optional Block Roll Over System transforms the machine into a full-featured automated honing workstation. By rotating and indexing the block under CNC control, shops can hone multiple angles or surfaces without manually repositioning the workpiece, dramatically improving throughput, accuracy, and operator ergonomics.
With servo-driven stroking, automatic size control, built-in geometry correction, and Rottler’s sophisticated CNC touchscreen interface, the H85AXY delivers unmatched cylinder geometry, surface finish consistency, and production efficiency.
This machine is ideal for high-performance engine builders, diesel and industrial rebuilders, and production facilities needing a fully automated honing platform.

Decades before today’s engine shops trusted our equipment, Tony was already deep in the craft — rebuilding motors, machining blocks, and pushing for better precision.
A local newspaper once featured him as a standout young machinist, noting his drive, attention to detail, and obsession with doing things the right way. That same passion would eventually shape our company’s values.
Today, that commitment lives on in every machine we sell, every customer we support, and every shop we help succeed.
