Drills

Initial testing results of the Precorp modular countersink reveals an incredibly stable and consistent depth variation with less than 0.001" fluctuation over 16 holes drilled.

The WIDIA Victory Top Drill M1 modular drills feature a solid coupling for consistent performance from insert to insert and easy insert change on the machine because of a front-clamping mechanism.

In deep-hole drilling applications up to 30XD, new solid-carbide WIDIA-Rubig deep-hole drills reportedly remove between three and four times the metal compared to gun drills, in addition to delivering excellent hole quality and cycle times.

From its advanced VDS point geometry designed to reduce chipping on the cutting edge to its precision shank engineered for low runout, the WIDIA VariDrill is a new multi-application drill engineered to deliver acceptable hole finish and extended tool life across a wide range of materials, including in steels, stainless steels, cast irons, non-ferrous materials, and high-temperature alloys.

The Showa Super Drill system, distributed by ERI America, allows for precision drilling of holes up to 15 times their diameter from 50 — 270mm (1.97 — 10.63"), to a maximum depth of 1800mm (70.86").

Walter Surface Technologies announces the introduction of the newly redesigned ICECUT 100 and ICECUT 200 magnetic drills.

YG-1 Tool Co. Ltd. has added high-performance carbide drills for stainless steel to its drill line. Other additions include carbide microdrills and drills for drilling steel hardened up to 68 HRC, and HSS and cobalt drills.

Walter USA LLC reports that its Tiger-tec Silver CVD-coated cutting tool material offers extreme toughness for high thermal shock resistance and enhanced wear characteristics at high machining temperatures.

Deep holes in one operation — when it comes to this, the XD drills from the Walter Titex brand are reportedly unbeatable.

Walter Titex X-treme solid carbide high-performance drills from Walter, currently in use in a wide variety of industries including automotive, energy, die and mold and general metalworking applications are now available as non-coolant thru drills.
