DrillMeister -Wheel hub bearing- DMH head

IMPROVED TOOL LIFE AND PRODUCTIVITY

In this drilling test, the DrilMeister achieved both extended tool life and improved productivity.
The DMH head, featuring superior chipping resistance, demonstrated excellent performance under high-feed conditions.
Higher cutting speed and feed rate were applied while maintaining stable surface quality.
As a result, the number of holes per new cutting edge increased by approximately 1.8 times, leading to fewer tool changes and a significant reduction in total machining cost.
The DMH head solution is highly effective for mass production applications.
