CoroDrill® 860

The CoroDrill® 860 is a solid carbide drill designed for fast and problem-free drilling, maximizing productivity through high metal cutting efficiency. With excellent chip evacuation in long and short chipping materials, CoroDrill® 860 provides green light machining at high penetration rates.

The hole

The three most basic parameters for the hole are:

  • Hole diameter
  • Hole depth
  • Hole quality

The hole type and required precision affect the tool choice. Drilling may be affected by irregular or angled entry/exit surfaces and by cross holes.

The component

When the hole is analyzed, take into account the workpiece material, component shape and quantity

  • Does the material have good chip breaking qualities? Long or short chipping material?
  • Machinability?
  • Material hardness?
  • Alloy elements?

The machine

The machine influences:

  • The type of operation
  • Which type of tool holders and/or collets to use

Always consider:

  • Machine stability
  • Spindle speed
  • Coolant volume and pressure
  • Workpiece clamping
  • Choice of horizontal or vertical spindle

Tool holding

Productivity is not only influenced by grade and geometry, but also by the ability to clamp the tool securely and precisely. For optimal stability and hole quality, always use Coromant Capto or CoroChuck 930 with the shortest possible drill and overhang.

Tool run-out

Minimum tool run-out is essential for successful drilling. The run-out should not exceed 0.02 mm in order to achieve:

  • Close hole tolerance and straightness
  • Good surface finish
  • Long and consistent tool life

Coolant

Coolant supply influences:

  • Chip evacuation
  • Hole quality
  • Tool life

Internal coolant is necessary for hole depths larger than 3 x DC and for avoiding chip jamming.

External coolant can be used for shallow hole depths and good chip formation.

Chip control

Chip formation and evacuation are critical issues. Chip jamming is dependent on

  • Workpiece material
  • Choice of drill geometry
  • Coolant pressure/volume
  • Cutting data

It affects hole quality, drill life/reliability, drill breakages.

Cutting data

Cutting speed is the main factor affecting tool life.High speed rates:

  • High temperatures
  • Increased tool wear
  • Poor hole quality
  • Poor hole tolerance

Lower speed rates:

  • Built-up edges
  • Bad chip evacuation
  • Longer time in cut

Recommendations

  • It is recommended to use hydraulic precision chucks
  • It is recommended to use internal coolant, minimum recommended pressure 10 bar (145 psi)

CoroChuck™ 930 For highest clamping force and precision
