Mass-Producing Taps with Nine9 indexable center drill

♦ A leading tap manufacturer in Italy faced challenges in maintaining stability during the grinding phase after turning. The inconsistent positioning of solid carbide center drills caused inefficiencies, reduced accuracy, and increased tooling costs.
After switching to Nine9’s i-Center drill, the customer achieved stable and repeatable positioning during grinding. Using parameters of cutting speed 40 m/min feed rate 0.03 mm/rev with oil coolant on a Citizen lathe, they established a fully controlled process and significantly reduced overall production costs.

♦ They have now adopted Nine9’s i-Center drill across their high-volume tap production lines — enhancing both quality and efficiency.
Why is Nine9’s i-Center drill the best solution?
Patented clamping mechanism ensures constant drilling depth for high-accuracy positioning

♦ Indexable insert design — no need for tool length re-setting when changing inserts or cutting edges. Time saving!
If you're manufacturing in taps, cutting tool, engine shafts, transmission gears, grinding parts, bearings and other precision components that require center drilling, let’s talk about how Nine9’s i-Center drill can upgrade your production process!
