Better, faster, more cost-effective: drilling from solid in steel
During drilling from solid in steel, the focus is on quality, time and cost-effectiveness. And these topics are therefore also in the foreground during the development of new tools. Along with the Tritan-Drill Steel, which is the tool of choice for the highest cost-effectiveness even in difficult drilling situations, MAPAL has developed new tools for special applications with clear added value for the user.
Unstable machining conditions economical and reliable drilling: QTD indexable insert drill with pyramid tip
If steel is to be machined in unstable machining conditions while using the smallest possible amount of carbide at the same time, MAPAL offers a new indexable insert with pyramid tip for the indexable insert drill QTD. Due to the tip, the indexable insert centres itself; reliable bore entry is therefore ensured. The coating on the new indexable insert is also specially adapted to the machining of steel. In this way the wear resistance is significantly increased. The result is very long tool lives.
