Abstract: A drill driving apparatus includes a tool driving mechanism and a driving mechanism fixing instrument. The tool driving mechanism is configured to hold a tool and apply a rotation operation and a feeding operation in a tool axis direction to the tool. The driving mechanism fixing instrument has a through hole through which the tool passes. The driving mechanism fixing instrument is configured to be inserted detachably into a guiding through hole in order to fix the tool driving mechanism to a drill jig in which the guiding through hole is formed.

Abstract: A positioning system for a gantry adapted to move in the horizontal, X-Y plane that utilizes up to 80% less energy to operate than commercial machines, while at the same time decreasing the position settling times by 50%, and achieving this with an “in position window” of 2-3 microns, (a settling window) beating the current industry in position window of 7-12 microns. It accomplishes this through a novel synergistic overall design that utilizes a much lighter and much stiffer moving mass resulting in the moving components having an increased natural frequency. With this system on any style of PCB drilling machine, the drill bit life is extended in two ways: they do not dull as fast and they do not break as often.

The drill is a deep hole machining drill having a length of the first spiral flute and the second spiral flute equal to or greater than 4D relative to a drill diameter D that is an outer diameter of the outer blade tip.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an end mill, which comprises a bottom edge, which is composed of an arc-shaped cutting edge that is curved when seen from a direction perpendicular to the tool axis and a linear or curved medium-to-low inclination cutting edge, and a peripheral edge, wherein, when seen from a direction parallel to the tool axis, the arc-shaped cutting edge and a rim at the rearward side of the rotation at a flank of the arc-shaped cutting edge are curved with radii of curvatures, and the radius of curvature of the arc-shaped cutting edge is smaller than the radius of curvature of the rim at the rearward side of the rotation at the flank of the arc-shaped cutting edge.

Abstract: In a cutting tool having an indexable cutting insert with exactly four cutting portions, the cutting insert is removably securable to an insert holder by a fastener. The cutting insert has two opposing end surfaces with a peripheral side surface extending therebetween, and each cutting portion has a major cutting edge formed by the intersection of a rake surface and a relief surface. The peripheral side surface has first and second pairs of opposing side surfaces which include the four relief surfaces and the four rake surfaces, respectively. In an end view, four cutting points on the four major cutting edges define the transitions between the first and second pairs of opposing side surfaces, and a minimum first length dimension between the second pair of opposing side surfaces is less than six-tenths of a minimum second length dimension between two of the four cutting points.

The finish protuberance is located between the medium protuberance and a corner of the insert. The finish protuberance also includes a front finish deflector surface and first and second relief surfaces extending towards the medium protuberance from the front finish deflector surface.

Abstract: A controlled feed speed drilling machine includes an output shaft for driving a cutting tool in motion. The output shaft is connected to first and second motors by a transmission, which includes a rotationally driving ring and a tapped drive nut. The driving ring is rotatable along the longitudinal axis of the output shaft via the transmission and the first motor. The output shaft is rotationally linked to the driving ring and is mobile in translation relative to the driving ring along the longitudinal axis via the transmission and the second motor. The tapped drive nut rotates along the longitudinal axis relative to the output shaft via the transmission and the first motor. The translation speed VT of the output shaft along its longitudinal axis is equal to the product of the rotation frequency FR of the second motor and a constant k according to VT=k. FR.

Abstract: A drill comprises a drill body that is rotatable on an axis. Chip evacuating flutes, which are open on front flanks of the drill body and are extended rearwards, are formed in a periphery of the drill body on its front side. Cutting edges are formed along ridge lines where the front flanks intersect with wall surfaces of the chip evacuating flutes facing a drill rotating direction. At least first and second front flanks are formed on the front flanks in order of their locations in the drill rotating direction from its leading side to its trailing side. A clearance angle of the second front flank is greater than that of the first front flank. Intersection lines of the first and second front flanks cross the cutting edges.

Abstract: The reaming tool comprises a cutting part having a peripherally arranged reaming cutter which, upon rotation about a center axis of the reaming tool, defines a cutting circle of nominal diameter. The reaming tool further comprises at least two peripherally arranged guide elements, which lie on a guide circle arranged eccentrically to the center axis or having a larger diameter than the cutting circle. As a result of this measure, high surface quality is obtained, in particular even in soft materials, since the reaming tool is clamped in the direction of the reaming cutter.

Abstract: Corner cutting edges (7 and 8) each having a side portion connected to a minor cutting edge and curved in the same direction as that in which the minor cutting edge is curved are formed on opposite sides of the minor cutting edge (6) of an indexable cutting insert for milling including a major cutting edge (5) formed of a ridge formed by an intersection of a rake face and a flank face and the minor cutting edge (6) for finish machining curved in a convex manner when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the flank face, and the minor cutting edge (6) continues to the major cutting edge (5) via the corner cutting edges (7 and 8).
