Drilling Machines
From small handheld power drills to bench-mounted and floor-mounted drill presses, drilling machines cut holes and do tapping, countersinking, reaming, boring and counterboring into or through metal, wood, or other materials using a cutting tool held in the drill by a chuck or Morse taper that is rotated and fed into the work at variable speeds.
Multi-Axis Machines Open the Door to Countless Possibilities

Different types of CNC machines will appear in smart factories. Here’s what you need to know about upgrading and updating your machines.
Exhibitors will showcase the latest in grinding technologies, sawing and cutoff machines, as well as a variety of finishing technologies.
A heavy equipment manufacturer is using a 6-axis robotic arm equipped with a drilling spindle to very precisely make holes in structural steel up to 1 inch thick. The solution is one-third the cost of traditional drilling but performs many other applications and requires just one operator.
Understanding the application and being aware of common challenges can help make a difficult operation both productive and profitable. An ANCA product manager explains the different types of cutting tools for deep hole drilling and how to overcome common challenges.
The DeHoff 20144 performs gundrilling, pull boring, roller burnishing, and thread tapping on the aluminum microwave guides on the ITER Tokamak.
Indexable tools like the AccuPort 432 provide repeatability and surface finish while eliminating lost production time due to pre-drilling setups and regrinding.
Sandvik Coromant’s CoroDrill® 462 and CoroDrill® 862 mark a new era for micro drilling of difficult-to-machine materials.
