Drills

Makino announces the release of the EDBV8 fast hole EDM drilling machine for the production of film cooling holes and shaped diffuser holes in blade and vane segments.

Building on the success of the Phoenix high performance drill from Sphinx, BIG Kaiser has introduced the new Power-Phoenix extra long high performance drill series.

A new deep-hole microdrill from BIG Kaiser's Sphinx line provides a time-saving option for creating wire EDM starter holes, averaging 5X faster per hole according to testing.

The KOMET GROUP's new KOMET KUB Centron Powerline is an advanced development of the KOMET KUB Centron core bit drill.

The simple but effective KSEM PLUS modular system from Kennametal Inc. that combines the benefits of the KSEM modular drill (high feeds and length-to-diameter [L/D] ratios) with the benefits of an indexable drill (high speeds and low consumable costs) is for drilling large diameter applications.

New stack drill from Kennametal for aerospace composite/titanium stacks can operate with through-coolant or without for superior chip evacuation.

With its new Beyond grade of fine-grain carbide and unique point geometry, the new HPS solid-carbide drill from Kennametal is reportedly achieving excellent metal-removal rates and long tool life, making it an ideal tool for holemaking in aluminum.

The GOdrill, Kennametal's first microdrill, works with multiple applications and effective drills multiple materials.

Deep hole drilling is very popular in the automotive, die and mold and aerospace industries. ISCAR took the gundrill technology one step further when developing the new CHAMGUN for deep hole drilling; this is a gundrill that enables the replacement of drilling heads while the driver is still connected to the machine.

Ingersoll Cutting Tools has extended the application range of its Gold-Twist drilling line by introducing a flat-face geometry tip for flat bottom machining, in a diameter range of 8.00mm to 25.5mm (0.312" to 1.012").
