Drilling is a cutting process that uses a drill bit to cut a hole of circular cross-section in solid materials. The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting tool, often multi point. The bit is pressed against the workpiece and rotated at rates from hundreds to thousands of revolutions per minute
Small to medium diameter holes
There are three different drilling solutions to choose from: Solid carbide drills, exchangeable-tip drills and index able insert drills. Hole tolerance, length and diameter are three important parameters to consider when selecting drill type. Each solution has its advantages in different applications.
Indexable insert drills
CoroDrill 880 is designed for productive drilling and is optimized for mid-range tolerance applications in all workpiece materials. CoroDrill 880 is a versatile tool that can do more than a conventional drill, e.g. boring.
CoroDrill 870 offers high process security with safe chip evacuation for medium tolerance holes.
We have a complete range of solid carbide drills for high-precision holes and deep bores. Recondition your drills with Sandvik Coromant to reduce hole and tool costs down to 50%. Material optimized drills: For specific materials and high precision applications, e.g. CoroDrill 860
