TIPS & TRICKS for DEEP HOLE DRILLING
Using a G73 peck cycle helps Chip evacuation in deep hole drilling & materials which have poor chip formation
16xD - 50xD must utilize a Pilot hole drill
40xD - 50xD can utilize a 20xD intermediary drill if deemed necessary
TIR & tool alignment with material are the most important factors in deep hole drilling
Use high pressure coolant when deep hole drilling
Slow the feedrate to 50% when breaking through the material
In through holes, the tool exit should not exceed .078”-.118”.
Recommended Drilling Procedure for Deep Hole Drilling
1 Drill a pilot hole 1-2xD deep with a short drill. The pilot drill should be
.0011”-.0019” larger than the long drill and its point angle should 1
also be larger (over 135°).
2 Enter the pre-hole using low feed and rotate at low speed 2
(50-100 RPM) until it engages the material.
3 Activate the coolant system and increase rotation speed to the
recommended cutting parameter, maintain for 2-3 seconds, then 3
continue at recommended drilling feed. No pecking is required.
4 After having reached the required depth, reduce speed to 4
50-100 RPM before retracting from the hole.
