PM drills are a type of powder metallurgy drill used in situations where carbide drills break easily and HSS drills have difficulty drilling. With a more robust and durable structure, PM drills offer high performance even under harsh machining conditions.
Areas of Use of PM Drills:
Drilling in hard metals such as steel and castings
Drilling in hard-to-machine metals such as stainless steel and aluminum
Deep hole drilling operations
Precision drilling operations
Operations requiring high metal removal capacity
Advantages of PM Drills:
Durability: Less prone to breakage compared to carbide drills. Long life and can be used over and over again.
Power: Provides higher cutting power than HSS drills. It drills faster and requires less drilling force.
Efficiency: Allows faster and more parts machining compared to HSS drills. Shortens production time and reduces costs.
No Tailstock and Pecking Problems: PM drills are capable of drilling without tailstock and pecking. In this way, the drilling process is completed faster and cleaner.
