Amazing facts!
── Introducing ideas and technologies ──
The GK drill series is a drill for general hole drilling in aluminium materials.
Special shapes such as multi-step and double-margin specifications can be proposed flexibly, and stable drilling hole accuracy is ensured by the double margin and straight edge specifications. In addition, the three-edge specification achieves excellent hole positioning accuracy for cast holes.
The line-up includes GK drills for solid holes, GKT drills for cast holes and GKZ drills with DLC coating for high welding resistance.
High degree of freedom in design
2 edges and double margin
3 edges and multi-step
Improved welding resistance to the cutting edge thanks to DLC coating
Example case of T/A M6 pilot hole
GKZ drill with DLC coating has significantly improved welding resistance, right at the cutting edge!
This is the point!
High guiding performance with double margins and special thinning shape
Excellent!
GKZ drill
For solid hole
(2 edges, 4 guides)
GKT drill
For casted hole
(3 edges, 6 guides)
This is the point!
The effect of 3 edges!
Excellent hole positioning accuracy in cast holes!
Good!
3-edged drills are characterized by low resultant force and stable processing
Development / product concept
“Current status and challenges”
- Traditionally, twist drills have been the conventional and mainstream drills for general holes drilling in aluminium.
- However, twist drills have low tool rigidity, which causes the drill to move, resulting in hole bending and chattering.
“Development points”
- The GK series uses thinning and double margins suitable for aluminium to suppress undesired tool behaviour, thereby reducing bending and chattering.
- The GK series also offers flexible proposals for special shapes such as multi-step and double-margin specifications, and a line-up of DLC-coated products with high welding resistance.
