New Drilling System Launched
October 1, 2020
Allied Machine and Engineering has announced its new high-penetration drilling system, the T-A Pro, that builds on its 35 years of spade drilling expertise with its T-A (Throw Away) insert.
"The T-A Pro drill combines material-specific insert geometries, a redesigned drill body and a proprietary coolant-through system to allow penetration rates that run at speeds nearly 30% faster than other high-performance drills on the market," said the spokesperson. "Coolant outlets are designed to direct maximum flow to the cutting edge, providing quick heat extraction where it is most critical, even at significantly higher speeds. Material-specific insert geometries produce enhanced chip formation and the drill body incorporates straight flutes redesigned for maximum coolant flow and excellent rigidity. These design elements combine to extend tool life, create consistent quality holes and provide superior chip evacuation. As a result, the T-A Pro drill offers machine shops and high production manufacturers a spade drill with incredible speed and a cost per hole averaging 25% less than existing drills."
The T-A Pro drilling system is available in diameters ranging from 0.4370" to 1.882" (11.1 mm to 47.80 mm) and is suitable for holes ranging in stub, 3xD, 5xD, 7xD, 10xD, 12xD and 15xD depths. The drill is stocked in both imperial and metric shanks, with flat and cylindrical variants. The carbide insert geometries offered initially will cater to the following ISO material classes:
- Steel (P) with AM300 coating
- Cast iron (K), with TiAlN coating
- Non-ferrous (N) with TiCN coating.
Product Manager Sal Deluca stated, "The T-A Pro drill is designed for use in applications ranging well beyond general purpose drilling. It truly targets all industries, offering phenomenal tool life at high penetration rates, especially in situations where the balance of chip formation at high penetration is critical."
