2. Rotate the drill 180

2 - PIN IN HOLES 4 - THE IMPORTANCE OF COOLANT IN DRILLING Coolant in drilling is always recommended, independent of the workpiece material, because it helps chip evacuation, improves hole quality and increases tool life. The best results are achieved with internal coolant, when it is not available, external coolant can help to achieve acceptable results if the coolant noses are well directed to the drill flutes and if the coolant pressure is good. ROTATING DRILLS

1.Check the coolant pressure and volume according to the drillDrilling without coolant is not recommended, mainly because the chips can

2.Use a shorter drilldue to machine limitations, the cutting speed should be reduced and the “wood

peck“ drilling technique should be applied (after drilling a few millimeters, the NON ROTATING DRILLS drill is retracted out from the hole to ensure no chips are stuck on the drill, and then continue drilling). 1. Check the coolant flow and increase it, clean machine filter,
