Edit
Drilling at a machine shop that only machined 10% stainless steel jobs was a much simpler time. Drills lasted much longer in basic materials and all processes were much smoother.

Nowadays, drilling at a machine shop that machines 80–90% stainless steel and exotic alloys is on another level of difficulty. You will regularly come across a need for solutions with work hardening, chip control, vibrations, rigidity and how to achieve a smooth process. Sumitomo has developed tool geometries and technology to help you overcome these challenges.

Sumitomo will review how you can reduce work hardening by using coolant through drills and learning which speeds and feeds will reduce work hardening. They will also explore the impact of how speeds, feeds and tool geometries affect chip control and vibrations. Lastly, study how the rigidity of the part and tool affects your process in order to achieve an ideal outcome.
