■ Runout Accuracy

(Unit: mm)

For the runout accuracy of web-thinned drills, the runout after thinning (A) is important in addition to the difference in lip height (B).

on the spindle should be controlled within .0012”. If the runout exceeds the limit, the drilled hole will also become large and an increase in the horizontal cutting force, which may result in drill breakage.

■ Work Material Surface and Drill Performance

(Entrance)

(Exit)

● Part material with slanted or uneven surface If the surface of the hole entrance or exit is slanted or uneven, decrease the feed rate to 1/3 to 1/2 of the recommended cutting conditions.

■ How to Use a Long Drill

● Problem When using a long drill (e.g. XHGS Type), SMDH-D Type drill or SMDH-12.5D Type drill at high rotation speeds, the runout of the drill tip may cause a deviation of the entry point as shown on the right, bending the drill hole and resulting in drill breakage. ● Remedies
