Sandvik Coromant launches composite hole making solution, CoroDrill 452
Sandvik Coromant has unveiled CoroDrill 452, aimed at high quality hole making in carbon composite parts.
The new product is a result of Sandvik Coromant's tie-up with US headquartered Precorp, a specialist in polycrystalline diamond (PCD), as well as carbide cutting tools. It has been 12 months since Precorp and Sandvik Coromant established a partnership to jointly provide innovative solutions for composite machining applications.
CoroDrill 452 is for close tolerance hole making in composites. Optimised specifically for carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) and metallic stack materials, this groundbreaking tool offers customers a host of benefits. For example, CoroDrill 452 provides reduced delamination and burr formation – defects witnessed frequently when hole making in composites using less effective cutting tool technology.
CoroDrill 452 is suitable for use in fixed bed, portable and hand-held machine applications.
