Technical Guidance Basics of Threading Turning Edition Thread Cutting Methods Cutting Method Radial Infeed Leading Edge Feed Dir. Trailing Edge Direction of Cut Characteristics Most common threading technique, used mainly for small pitch threads. Easy to change cutting conditions such as depth of cut, etc. Longer contact points lead to more chatter. Difficult to control chip evacuation. Damage on the trailing edge gets larger faster. Flank Infeed Effective for large pitch threads and blemish-prone work material surfaces. Chips evacuate from one side for good chip control. The trailing edge side is worn, and therefore the flank is easily worn. Corrected Flank Infeed Effective for large pitch threads and blemish-prone work material surfaces. Chips evacuate from one side for good chip control. Inhibits flank wear on trailing edge side. Alternating Flank Infeed Effective for large pitch threads and blemish-prone work material surfaces. Wears evenly on right and left cut edges. Since both edges are used alternatively, chip control is sometimes difficult. Troubleshooting for Threading Failure Cause Countermeasures Excessive Cutting Edge Wear Tool material Select a more wear-resistant grade Cutting Edge Failure Uneven Wear on Right and Left Sides Cutting condition Insert attachment Cutting condition Decrease the cutting speed Optimise coolant flow and density Change the number of passes. Check whether the cutting edge inclination angle is appropriate for the screw lead angle. Check whether the tool is mounted properly. Change to corrected flank infeed or alternating flank infeed Chipping Cutting condition If caused by a built-up edge, increase cutting speed Breakage Poor Surface Roughness Packing of chips Cutting condition Cutting condition Supply enough amount of coolant to the cutting edge. Increase the number of passes while decreasing the depth of cut per pass. Use different tools for roughing and finishing applications. If blemished due to low-speed machining, increase the cutting speed. If chattering occurs, decrease the cutting speed. If the depth of cut of the final pass is small, make it larger. 4 Shape and Accuracy Tool material Select a more wear-resistant grade Inappropriate cutting edge inclination angle Select a correct shim to secure relief on the side of the insert. Inappropriate Thread Shape Insert attachment Check whether the tool is mounted properly. Shallow Thread Depth Small depth of cut Check cutting depth Tool wear Check damage to the cutting edge.

Drilling Edition Technical Guidance MultiDrill Usage Guidance Drill Maintenance Using Cutting Oil () Collet Selection and Maintenance Ensure proper chucking of drills to prevent vibration. Collet chucks (thrust bearing type) provide strong and secure grip force. When replacing drills, regularly remove cutting debris inside the collet by cleaning the collet and the spindle with oil. Repair marks with an oilstone. (2) Drill Installation The peripheral run-out of the drill mounted on the spindle should be controlled within.3mm. Do not chuck on the drill flute. If drill flute inside the holder, chip removal will be obstructed thus causing damage to the drills. Drill chucks and keyless chucks are not suitable for MultiDrills as they have a weaker grip force. Collet Chuck Collet Collet Edge run-out to be within.3mm. Drill Chuck If there are marks, repair with an oilstone or change to a new one. Do not grip on the drill flute. () Choosing of Cutting Oil If cutting speed is more than 4m/min, cutting oil JISW type 2 is recommended for its good cooling effect & chip removal ability as it is highly soluble. If cutting speed is below 4m/min and longer tool life is a priority, non-water cutting oil JISA type 2, an activated sulphuric chloride oil, is recommended for its lubricity. * on-water soluble oil may be flammable. To prevent fire, a substantial amount of oil should be used to cool the component so that smoke or heat will not be generated. (2) Supply of Coolant If using an external supply of coolant, fill a substantial amount from the inlet. Oil pressure range:.3 to.5 MPa, oil level range: 3 to /min. If using an internal supply of coolant (Ex: HK Type) for holes For holes ø4 or smaller, the oil pressure must be at least.5mpa to ensure a sufficient supply of coolant. holes ø6 or larger:.5 to. MPa for hole depths below 3 times the drill diameter, and to 2 MPa or more for hole depths more than 3 times the diameter. External supply of coolant Vertical drilling Use high pressure at entrance Horizontal drilling Easy usage Use high pressure at entrance Internal supply of coolant Coolant supply holder Machine internal supply Calculation of Power Consumption and Thrust Work Clamping Calculating Cutting Speed v c = n= π x DC x n,, x v c π x DC DC n Hole Depth High thrust forces occur during high-efficiency drilling. Therefore, the workpiece must be supported to prevent fracture caused by bending. Also, large torques and horizontal cutting forces occur.

Drill Regrinding When to regrind When one or two feed marks (lines) appear on the margin, when corner wear reaches the margin width, or when small chipping occurs, it indicates that the drill needs to be sent for regrinding. How and where to regrind We recommend applying regrinding and recoating. Recoating is recommended to prevent shortening of tool life. ote, ask us or an approved vendor to recoat with our proprietary coating.

Technical Guidance Tool Failure and Remedies SUMIBORO Edition Type of Insert Failure Cause Countermeasures Flank Wear Grade lacks wear resistance. Cutting speed is too fast. Select a more wear resistant grade. BC2,B,B2 Decrease the cutting speed. Reduce the cutting speed to less than v c=2m/min. (Higher feed rate reduces the overall tool-to-work contact time.) Use an insert with a larger relief angle. Crater wear Breakage At Bottom of Crater Grade lacks wear resistance. Cutting speed is too fast. Change to a high efficiency grade. BC2,BX25,BX2 Reduce cutting speed and increase feed rate (low-speed, high-feed cutting). Reduce the cutting speed to less than v c=2m/min. (Higher feed rate reduces the overall tool-to-work contact time.) Flaking Grade lacks toughness. Back force is too high. Select a tougher grade (e.g. BC22 and B2). Select an insert with a stronger cutting edge (Increase negative land angle and edge honing) If the grade has enough toughness, improve the cutting edge sharpness. otch Wear High boundary stress. Change to a grade with a higher boundary wear resistance (e.g. BC2 and B2). Increase the cutting speed (5m/min or more). Change to "Variable Feed Rate" method, which alters the feed rate at every fixed number of outputs. Increase negative land angle and edge honing. Chipping at Forward otch Position Impact to front cutting edge is too large or there is constant occurrence. Change to a fine-grained grade with a higher fracture resistance (e.g. BC3 and B35).
