Drilling and Tapping in CNC Machining

Precision and Efficiency, Also for Difficult Materials 

In the world of CNC machining drilling and tapping are crucial operations to ensure high-quality results. These techniques are used to create holes and threads in various metals and alloys. Using CNC machines, these processes are performed with unprecedented precision and repeatability, which is essential for modern manufacturing applications.

Our focus is on complexity and quality: we specialize in machining High-Strength, Resistant Alloys (HSRA) such as stainless steel, titanium, Hastelloy, Inconel and other challenging materials. These alloys require in-depth knowledge of cutting parameters and tool selection, and that is what we excel at.

Drilling in CNC Machining

Drilling in CNC Machining

Drilling is often the first step in a machining process that requires holes. CNC machines use dedicated toolpaths to deliver accurate results in even the most demanding materials. For applications in stainless steel, titanium or Inconel, custom drills with high heat and wear resistance are essential. Depending on the project, we use:

• Spiral drills: For standard applications with high precision.
• Core drilling: Efficient in removing material even at HSRA.
• Gun drills: For deep drilling in hard alloys with perfect chip removal.

With CNC technology, we optimize cutting speed, feed and cooling to minimize tool stress and ensure perfect hole quality.

Tapping: Creating threads

Thread cutting or rolling in HSRA materials requires specialized knowledge and top quality tools. Our CNC machines can:

• Cutting Tools: Precise wire creation in hard metals such as Hastelloy and Inconel.
• Roller or wire rod tapping: Ideal for strong threads without chip removal, even in resilient materials such as titanium.

Our expertise ensures that the tapping cycle is tailored to the unique properties of each material, resulting in consistent, high-quality threads.

Why choose us?

Machining HSRA materials is a profession in its own right. Our experience with challenging alloys and advanced CNC machines makes us the partner for drilling and tapping in even the most difficult conditions. Whether for prototypes or series production, we always deliver the highest quality.
