Some Examples Of Tools Options

Spool Bore Holes

Objective

To eliminate rings produced in the bore by the rough pass reamer. In the typical process these rings need to be removed manually prior to finishing/assembly.

Result

Excellent size consistency

A straight hole free of rings

Huge cycle-time reduction (50%)

15 minutes saved per part

Oil Holes

Objective

To reduce the often very long machining time of the deep holes in small diameters with no diameter tolerance (in oil connection holes). In many cases, hss deep hole drills are still used.

Result

Solid carbide drills with c7 PLUS™ coating ensures increased speed and feed and reduce the cycle time considerably while giving increased life time. Very narrow hole tolerances and a completely safe proces.

Cavity Holes

Objective

To reduce the number of tools needed by combining more operations in one. Machine without vibration to obtain narrow diameter tolerance and perfect surface roughness.

Result

Reinforced core diameter and extra guide pads on the solid carbide drills with helix perform extremely well.

Reduced machining time

No vibration

Safe process

Surface quality: ra 0.8

Hole tolerance: H7-H8

Shock Valve Holes

Objective

A fast and reliable process ensuring that the tolerances are achieved in the most efficient way. a typical challenge is to meet the demands for a good surface quality.

Result

One shot drill with extra guide pads and c7 PLUS™ coating creating a straight hole with excellent surface quality while maintain- ing high feed and a long tool life. The c3 coated thread milling cutter ensures a reliable threading process.

Compensator Holes

Objective

To reduce the often long machining time while achieving a high degree of size consistency. To eliminate rings in the bore, produced by the rough pass reamer, that are often stuck in the component and need to be removed manually.

Result

The new process strategy and technology replace straight fluted tools with helix tools to eliminate the problem with rings. The reinforced core diameter and extra guide pads give a straight hole with excellent size consistency. in addition, the cycle time is often reduced by more than 50%.

Port Holes

Objective

The large diameter must be created in a drilling operation. must be machined without vibration to obtain narrow diameter toler- ances and perfect surface roughness.

Result

The step drill in pre-form carbide with special internal cool- ant and centre point makes it possible to increase cutting speed.

Reduced machining time

Relief Valve Holes

Objective

To create a straight hole meeting high tolerance and surface demands. Reduce the machining time while keeping a reliable process.

Result

The process strategy with a solid carbide step drill and step ream- er reduce the process time and produce a straight hole with tight tolerances and an excellent surface finish. Due to the c7 PLUS™ coating, tool life time is prolonged considerably.
