CNC drilling

CNC drilling is the perfect solution for tubular products requiring multiple precision holes, flow drilling and tapping.

  • Flow drilling (or thermal/friction drilling) is often used as an alternative to rivet nuts, creating tapped holes for bolts and screws in product assembly.

Key Features Include

Perfect Finish

The thread length is generally 2-3x the wall thickness with the ability to feature a flat, collarless finish.

Multiple Drilling in Single Setup

Equipped with an automatic tool changer that accommodates up to six different drill bit sizes in a single setup, our CNC drilling machine has a large bed size for volume work.

Suits High Volume

This bed allows for multiple parts to be stacked and batch processed without compromising tolerances and quality control.
