Deep-Hole Drill, as initially invented for ‘Gun-Drilling’ application in Europe during the Second World War; and since then is popular as ‘Gun-Drill’. However, over last 75 years, its applications are extended in Auto and other engineering metal cutting industries for Deep Hole Drilling. Still these Deep-Hole Drills are yet popularly called as ‘Gun-Drills’, even if used for other applications. Accusharp Cutting Tools have entered into this new segment of Round Tools for Deep-Hole Drilling applications. The applications are for deep holes drilling on Crankshaft, Engine blocks, Turbo Blades, Paper Rollers, Machine Tools, Fixturing, etc. Standard geometry for Gun-Drill has been…

Open or extremely interrupted bores such as those found, for example, in the cast housings of gear pumps, are a challenge for fine machining. Until now the desired results, for example with regard to the parallel alignment of the bores, could generally only be reliably achieved using single cutting edge tools. Spindle tools or pad-guided tools were used for this. These methods are effective, but very time-consuming. In order to allow such bores to be machined faster and hence more cost-effectiveness, MAPAL has developed a multi cutting edged fine boring tool with guide pads. With the development of Mapal Multi…
