| In today's highly competitive machining industries, you need every advantage you can obtain. Hougen's Rotabroach Annular Cutters for tough industrial applications deliver, with holemaking productivity that's faster, more accurate, and greater tool life.
Exclusive advantages such as: Elimination of operations: - Single pass production of large thru holes rather than two or more operations typically required with conventional twist drills. Improved tool life: - Up to 12 cutting edges per tool distributes cutting forces more evenly to reduce wear, extend life up to three or four times that of traditional holemaking tools plus allows more resharpenings. Faster cycle time: - Rotabroach Cutters have more cutting edges than conventional tools, allowing for higher penetration rates. Improved quality: - Cutters produce round, straight, virtually burr-free holes thru stock, without wander at the start, without drift during long passes. Increased capacity: - Drill larger holes with less horsepower because required thrust is reduced by 90% or more as compared to large twist drill tooling. Better Finishes: - Multiple tooth configuration, rather than just two flutes as with twist drills, produces smoother surface finish. Energy savings: - Rotabroach Cutters cut only at the outer perimeter leaving the majority of the stock as a slug of material - ejected from the tool at the end of the cut. |
