"Allied" makes a line of inserted spade drills, but they will only get you to the sfm you're already working at in A36. However, you may see an increase in productivity because they are available in long dia/length ratios, and you can run them straight through without pecking, or with the rapid-peck cycle in difficult applications. The drill bodies have a coolant collar to induce coolant through the tool. You need to rig up a supply line at the machine and manually plug the collar into it, though. They make inserts down to .374 (9.5mm)

Any experience with this type of coolant? I need to add thru tool coolant for drilling a36 plate, 3/8" x .281 dia. max. many, many holes and I need about 500 sfm too. I currently drill with ticn coated cobalt at 300 sfm but they tend to do a melt down on occasion. ====================================================================== To find out more about this mailing list including how to unsubscribe, send the message "info mfg-smartcam" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ====================================================================== ====================================================================== To find out more about this mailing list including how to unsubscribe, send the message "info mfg-smartcam" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ======================================================================
