Big Kaiser Precision Tooling introduces the Nirox high-performance drill from Sphinx, the newest addition to its cutting tool lineup. Available in diameters from 0.30-3.00 mm, the Nirox was developed for use at low cutting speeds in unstable environments. The Nirox geometry has a degressive helix angle equal to 30 degrees at the point and is designed for accurate and precise hole location up to 9xD.
A modern, TiAlSiN-based coating allows for enhanced chip and coolant evacuation in difficult-to-machine and adhesive materials, such as titanium, Inconel, stainless steel, hardened steel and cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloys.
