Chip breaking and chip control are very important for the customer and chips should not obstruct the operation of the conveyor and gantry. The competitor solution creates inconsistent chips and snarls of varied lengths are reported. With CoroDrill® DE10, we provided increased productivity and tool life, with good corner security and chips.

How to use

Apply 3–8×DC drills

There is no difference in applying 3×D or 8×D with regard to the feed recommendations. The applied cutting data should be within the recommendations.

General recommendations

Geometries

-M5
  • Offers uncompromising performance for all materials in a wide range of cutting data
  • Very easy to apply and exceptionally suitable for customers with mixed production
-M5F
  • Use when a flat bottom (180 degrees) is required
  • Good for pre-drilled holes and as a pilot drill when improved hole accuracy/positioning is required
  • Provides good function in advanced applications thanks to favorable cutting forces, minimizing drill body deflection
-M5C
  • Optimized micro geometry for cast iron materials
  • Has a larger corner chamfer compared to -M5, reducing the risk of hole exit breakouts in ISO K workpiece materials
  • Good option for applications where extra corner strength is needed

Grades

GC3334
  • A hard and fine-grained substrate, further increasing the wear resistance
  • Thick PVD coating (AlTiN) produced with Zertivo® technology
GC4334
  • Tough, fine-grained substrate with high Cr content and PVD coating (AlTiN) produced with Zertivo™ technology
  • High reliability with improved edge security offers resistance against built-up edge and chipping
GC2334
  • Tough, fine-grained substrate with high Cr content and a thin, multi-layer PVD coating (AlTiCrN) produced with Zertivo® technology

Advanced operations

Note: These advanced operations are not recommended, but if necessary, follow the guidelines below. Results may vary depending on workpiece material and drill length and the number of drill tip changes can be significantly reduced.

Angled surface entry Angled surface exit Convex surface Concave surface Cross holes
Preconditions Angle ≤ 10º Angle ≤ 30º Minimum surface radius: 4×DC Minimum surface radius: 1×DC Minimum recommended diameter on the hole to be crossed: 2×DC
Cutting speed, vc Use the recommended value for the workpiece material
Feed, fn Start value; reduce to 1/3 of recommended feed rate

Run-out

Run-out is affected by the machine condition, holder and mounting, for example.

Preferable: ≤ 0.03 mm (0.0012 inch)
Acceptable: ≤ 0.06 mm (0.0024 inch)
Not acceptable: > 0.06 mm (0.0024 inch)

Turning applications

In non-rotating drill applications, major misalignment greatly affects process security and tool stability. Always follow these recommendations.

Preferable ≤ 0.10 mm (0.0039 inch)
Acceptable ≤ 0.20 mm (0.0079 inch)
Not acceptable > 0.20 mm (0.0079 inch)

Coolant

  • Internal coolant is recommended for safe chip evacuation
  • Apply sufficient coolant flow and follow the recommendation on emulsion concentration from your supplier
  • When drilling deep holes, sufficient coolant flow is crucial to enable proper chip evacuation
  • Increased pressure/coolant flow will improve chip evacuation further
Recommended minimum cutting fluid flow
