The Detection of Coolant Holes And Other Characteristics of Coolant Holes Introdution

Today, Drillstar will introduce the detection of coolant holes and other characteristics of coolant holes. Firstly, you may notice that the drill bit backlash and cooling holes are not completely aligned. This is because we did not separate the drill bit from the coolant hole.

Firstly, we need to add the operation to the correct position, which should be placed after the tool end face detection. If we insert operation, detection, cooling holes here, and then add them, let's take a look at the calculation results. By calculation, you will find that the backlash is aligned with the cooling holes. If we enter the operation, we have two cooling holes that are not duplicated. You can repeat the detection here. We can also check the feed rate, you can increase the feed rate, but what I mean is that we will keep it the same here, and the angle will also be the same. We can change the parameters based on the distance from the hole to the center, which may require adjustment. Additionally, if we view the cooling holes, we can check them in the contour editor.

We can display it in the simulation. Here, you can see the 3D simulation of the tool. You can make a tool with cooling holes, and for this bar material, you only need to add simple cooling holes, but we can also choose different types of cooling holes, depending on the type of cooling hole in your billet. We can also examine the interaction between these cooling holes and the actual grinding process.

Therefore, if we enter CIM3D, we can do a few things here, one of which is to analyze the cooling holes, which looks like checking for cracks in the cooling holes. That's it here. What we are truly interested in is the slotting process and damage detection during the slotting process. Because it is obvious that the groove will reach the core of the drill bit, where the coolant hole is located. Therefore, this will detect whether the grinding operation has truly damaged the coolant hole. If necessary, we can also display it - it is located below the tool. If we change it from solid to transparent, we can see the coolant holes.

These are some tips for analyzing long drilling cooling holes.
