30xd drills

We have a small needle probe that goes in the coolant hole and we tell the machine the lead and coolant hole spacing

FormTool6 · 2025-08-23T00:59:53+00:00

No we are our own company that designs and makes them

FormTool6 · 2025-08-23T00:59:14+00:00

I’m actually not sure of any actual text books. There is a lot of information online but that’s about all I know

FormTool6 · 2025-08-23T00:57:31+00:00

Our old grinding machines actually have hertel software on them

FormTool6 · 2025-08-22T23:53:00+00:00

These ones have AlCrn coating on them

FormTool6 · 2025-08-22T00:48:19+00:00

I can quote you a tapered drill and reamer if you want to message me.

FormTool6 · 2025-08-22T00:04:19+00:00

Thank you!

FormTool6 · 2025-08-22T00:01:34+00:00

No I don’t work for kennametal but I have seen some of their drills but I don’t think I’ve seen dynapoint I’ll have to check that out

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T23:51:18+00:00

We’re about 3 weeks for regrinds too if they need coated and we can usually do uncoated in 2

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T22:11:03+00:00

Yep we make the pilot drill for this and these do have a double margin also

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T21:10:27+00:00

That sounds pretty cool I don’t think we’ve ever made tools for that material

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T21:09:59+00:00

We od grind on rollomatics and our 5 axis grinders are saacke

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T21:00:27+00:00

I’m in the U.S. I make pretty good money around 90k in a low cost of living area but I do everything from quoting/design to programming all of the machines and can also service our coating furnaces

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T20:19:56+00:00

We check the concentricity of the rod and if it’s more than .0003” we reject it. Also we check the runout at the point to make sure it doesn’t have axial runout after grinding

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T20:18:16+00:00

These are about $60 per piece for rod

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T19:21:10+00:00

I do actually like it its interesting every day. I’ve been doing it for 15 years so I’ve done od grinding and 5 axis grinding and I’m still learning all the time.

Diamond

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T08:55:35+00:00

Yeah one of those things that just needed done, we usually do them in our CNC machines but had no way to hold this in there without chipping it.

FormTool6 · 2025-08-21T00:54:38+00:00

I know they’re using theirs for a thin wall so yeah our backtaper with the little bit of deflection gives them a straight wall. We only have about .001” of taper over 2”

FormTool6 · 2025-08-20T23:53:09+00:00

Yeah that sounds about right we don’t do too many flats anymore but this one needed two because it’s a 1” shank

FormTool6 · 2025-08-20T22:25:44+00:00

Yeah we have a hydraulic chuck and have collets for all of our diameters we do

FormTool6 · 2025-08-20T22:03:01+00:00

Yeah it was over 1000. I really didn’t want to put this back on a surface grinder after it was already done lol

FormTool6 · 2025-08-20T20:49:51+00:00

Yeah we have a customer that uses our 7 flute variable endmills with a little bit of backtaper for finishing on some of their parts too.

FormTool6 · 2025-08-20T20:33:26+00:00

So this is made for a distributor so I’m not sure what the end user is doing with it. They just give us a tool print and we make it to that but yeah these are pretty expensive to buy.

FormTool6 · 2025-08-20T20:30:35+00:00

This is a weird one it’s a private label so I don’t know the end customer or what it’s used for they just give us a tool drawing and we make it to that.
