Basics of Drilling

  • Cutting Condition Selection
  • Control Cutting Force for

The following table shows the relation between edge treatment width and cutting force. If a problem Low Rigid Machine caused by cutting force occurs, reduce either the feed rate or the edge treatment width. Edge Treatment Width Drill : ø10mm Cutting Conditions Work : S50C 230HB 0.15mm 0.05mm

  • High Speed Machining Recommendation

If there is surplus capacity with enough machine power and sufficient rigidity, adopting higher efficiency conditions would improve the tool life; however, sufficient amount of coolant must be supplied. Wear Example

v =60m/min v =120m/min c c Work : S50C (230HB) Cond.: f = 0.3mm/rev H = 50mm Life : 600holes (Cutting length: 30m)

  • Explanation of Margins (Difference between single and double margins)
  • Single Margin (2 guides: circled parts)
  • Double Margin (4 guides: circled parts)

  • Shape used on most drills
  • 4-point guiding reduces hole bending and undulation for

improved stability and accuracy during deep hole drilling.
