BIG DAISHOWA introduces the newest addition to its SPHINX micro drill line. The new drill, made of fine-grained solid carbide, delivers exceptional tool life and consistent process reliability.
The chances of a tool slipping or pulling out in its holder during work is increasing. Here are some insights to help you select the proper holder for your work.
Coated carbide micro deep hole drills manufactured by SPHINX Tools can reliably create wire EDM starter holes up to 5x faster than traditional wire erosion techniques.
Accurate offsets and workpiece reference points are critical to effective setups and first-part accuracy. Taking a manual approach or attempting to verify these in the machine without the right measuring devices can be a delicate and time-consuming process.
A pilot or spot drill, also known as a starter drill, is typically required when the succeeding drill is longer than 10xD or smaller than Ø 1.00 mm. Starter drills can also be used to improve hole location due to their short, rigid geometries.
SPI is a post-process communication with the machine tool control. Measure your tool, print a label and scan the data directly to your machine tool control.
