Drills

The second edition 2-volume set offers several advancements in cutting tool manufacturing. Completely updated with new chapters added such as new developments in PCD drilling tools design and technology, the proper approach to determining the cutting force/drilling torque is introduced, and the inclusion of practical tool failure reports among other updates. Drills: Science and Technology of Advanced Operations, Second Edition, 2-Volume Set covers the design, manufacturing, and inspection of High Productivity Drilling Tools (HPDT) and addresses common issues with drilling system components. It discards old notions and beliefs as it introduces scientifically and technically sound concepts and rules with detailed explanations and multiple practical examples. The set discusses tool materials, tolerances, an inspection of drilling tools, requirements of tool drawings with examples, and methodologies along with procedures of failure analysis. A new line of HP drilling tools called VPA designs is introduced and brings it into a sharp focus signifying its importance in drilling operations. This practical book should be on the shelves of all industrial engineers, those working in production and manufacturing, process designers, tool material designers, cutting tool designers, and quality specialists. Researchers, senior undergraduate students, and graduate students will also find this book full of very helpful reference information and the source of new ideas and notions in drilling tool development. High-Productivity Drilling Tools: Design and Geometry (9781032203539) and High-Productivity Drilling Tools: Materials, Metrology, and Failure Analysis (9781032203553) can also be purchased individually.
