Since 1999, Accusharp is in the activity of manufacturing metal cutting ‘Round Tools’ like Carbide and H.S.S. drills, end-mills, reamers, cutters, burrs, form tools, step drills, etc. As a matter of fact, it is difficult to drill a straight and accurate dimensional hole of a depth more than about five times the diameter using a standard twist drill. However, using a ‘Gundrill’ one can make a ‘Deep’ hole of much longer depth; even 200 times the drill diameter. Not only it drills 200 times deep, but also with the precision tolerance of hole size, roundness, straightness, concentricity and surface finish…

Kennametal solves the age-long problem of tool stability when drilling in deep cavities, alongside tall shoulders, and past bulky fixturesReaching deep inside a workpiece to drill holes can be a real bear. You´ve tried taper length and aircraft drills, but even those made of solid carbide are apt to wander when hanging out of the chuck unsupported. Maybe you´ve combatted the problem with special extended-reach drill holders, although these are not only expensive, but limited to specific fixed lengths. A double angle or ER-style collet extension might be worth a try, yet these aren´t exactly compact, and any runout or…

The Budget was more focused on Agriculture and Infrastructure. However, the ripple effect of these sectors do help Machine Tools. The manufacture of tractors & implements would go up. The rural population’s disposable income would go up resulting in sales of more vehicles, household appliances and consumer goods. All of these sectors do need more Machine Tools to meet added demand. The growth expected on Defense and Aerospace sector was not so impressive. Those sectors should have been given more weightage in the Budget, as they drive up demands of all industrial sectors and has high potential for job creation.…
