Indexable Plunge Drill / Plunge Mill PDL Type / PCT Type PDL PCT Description The tool cuts in the Z axis direction where tool rigidity is highest, allowing high efficiency roughing for aeronautic components and dies with long tool overhang must be used to machine deep holes and pockets. Characteristics l The flat cutting edge design produces near-flat bottom profiles to reduce depth of cut variation during finishing. l All sizes come with an air hole for supplying coolant internally to improve chip evacuation. l Durable body with special surface treatment offers improved tool life and reliability. l The tools use SumiDrill WDX type inserts for handling a wide range of work materials, from steel to non-ferrous metals and exotic alloys. l The PDL type has a central insert making it possible to make l Although the PCT type has limited radial cutting ability, the tool radial cuts beyond the tool‘s radius, pitch feed cutting, and has many effective teeth enabling it to perform high feed cutting. drilling. (Pocket milling, etc.) (Medium finishing of corners, hole expansion, deep grooving, etc.) Keep the value of Pf for PDL type tools to Keep the value of Pf for PCT type tools to less than 50% of the tool less than 70% of the tool diameter (øD). diameter (øD). For ae (woc), refer to the dimension under "ae max" in the stock / dimensions tables titled "Holders Max, Depth: 3D/5D".
