  • Tool, a machine, and a method for orbitally drilling an orifice
    Patent number: 6821063
    Abstract: The tool comprises firstly a cutter support for being driven in rotation about a first axis of rotation that is to coincide with the axis of the orifice, and a cutter rotatably mounted on the cutter support to rotate about a second axis of rotation parallel to the first axis of rotation and spaced apart therefrom by a non-zero offset distance. A front segment of the cutter support has maximum radial extent relative to the first axis of rotation that is less than or equal to the radius of the orifice to enable the front segment to penetrate into the orifice during drilling. The tool is particularly applicable to drilling machines used in the aviation industry.
