DEEPMAX Deep-Hole Drills

Inovatools offers a revised deep-hole drill product series (15xD to 30xD). The new Deepmax products entirely supersede the previous Inovatools range in this area.

Achieving the best results in deep-hole drilling calls for capable and reliable tools. Tobias Eckerle, product manager at Inovatools, comments, “We have overhauled our range in this machining segment completely, resulting in our Deepmax deep-hole drills that offer outstanding performance values in terms of service life and cutting values compared with equivalent tools on the market.”

Besides other factors, the high performance of the tool is based on the geometry that has been adapted for this special drilling process and guarantees optimal chip removal for this application. To achieve this, Inovatools relies on a special polishing technique that creates extremely smooth chip grooves. The extraordinary front geometry with a 135° point angle is necessary for optimal centering of the drill. Four lands guarantee high hole quality even with oblique outlets and cross-drilled holes.

The extremely smooth Varocon high-performance coating that was specially developed for the application aids in fast chip flow and ensures a long tool service life. Eckerle says, “We are also using a newly developed process for edge preparation in order to optimize the cutting edges precisely for the machining challenges of the deep-drilling process. This keeps cutting forces low, makes for smooth running and maximizes service life.”

Inovatools is offering the new Deepmax tools in 15xD, 20xD, 25xD and 30xD, which will all be available from stock. According to Eckerle, “Deep holes made with our Deepmax drills are set apart by high process reliability and outstanding hole surface quality.”
