Emuge-Franken Solid Carbide Drills Withstand Shock, Chipping

Emuge-Franken USA has introduced a full line of 3XD and 5XD solid carbide drills that are designed for a wide range of materials and applications in high-mix, low-volume job shop environments.

Emuge’s MultiDrill is made of a specialized sub-micro grain carbide grade that is harder than conventional carbide grades for drilling, yet retains the ability to withstand shock and chipping. MultiDrill features a TiAlN-T63 coating that uses nano-layer technology with surface hardness, exceeding standard TiAlN-based coatings for reduced friction at high temperatures.

Featuring concave cutting edges, MultiDrill has higher chip shearing ability and a tightly controlled edge preparation process that is said to provide consistent performance and long tool life. In addition, a double-margin design helps stabilize the drill in the cut, enabling rounder, more accurate holes. Another MultiDrill feature is a drill web construction with an open flute form for maximum chip evacuation. MultiDrills are also self-centering, eliminating pre-spot drilling applications, and all tools feature through-coolant capability.

Emuge MultiDrill is available in 3XD and 5XD sizes from 0.1181"-0.7500", a total of 372 SKUs in the program.
