Increasing productivity
Increased feed and speed will improve productivity, but •
another more critical factor is hole quality.
Poor hole quality means the material must be repaired •
- Expensive and time consuming!
An improvement in hole quality and reduced secondary •
operations will generate a large gain in productivity!
- Shorter lead times in the total holemaking operation
- Eliminated secondary operations possible and will reduce number
of machines
- Expensive components demand secure production process
