16 January, 2024Hepyc, renowned for its leadership in machining innovations, is betting on the future of carbide with its latest tungsten carbide drill, marking a milestone in the metalworking industry with the introduction of the 1184 solid carbide drill. This tool is distinguished by its state-of-the-art design that includes internal cooling, TiAlN coating and a drilling capacity of up to 12 times the drill diameter, highlighting its efficiency and versatility.
The 1184 drill bit is designed with integral carbide, ensuring remarkable durability and wear resistance, even under intensive drilling conditions. Its internal cooling system facilitates efficient heat dissipation, extending the life of the bit and enabling faster and more accurate drilling. The titanium aluminium nitride (TiAlN) coating enhances heat and wear resistance, ensuring outstanding performance in challenging materials. The drill tip, designed at 140 degrees, optimises penetration and reduces the risk of chipping in different types of metals, while the 30-degree helix angle improves chip evacuation, increasing drilling efficiency and decreasing friction. In addition, its length allows deep drilling up to 12 times its diameter.
The bit has been created to address a wide range of applications in metal drilling, including high hardness steels, aluminium, stainless steel and nickel alloys. The combination of carbide and TiAlN coating allows it to drill high hardness steels with ease and precision, while the internal cooling and special tip geometry make it ideal for drilling aluminium without the risk of overheating. Its ability to work with stainless steel and nickel alloys makes it an efficient and reliable choice for a variety of jobs.
With the launch of the 1184 drill, Hepyc not only introduces an advanced tool to the market, but also promises a revolution in efficiency, durability and precision in drilling processes, thus meeting the needs of the modern metalworking industry.
