Twist drill bit having a
cutting tip (3) with a stepped structure, consisting of a shank (1), a guide region (2) and the adjoining
cutting tip (3) with a stepped structure, the stepped structure of which is interrupted by two flutes (5) winding about a
drill bit axis (0), wherein the
cutting tip (3) with a stepped structure has a
drill bit tip (3.1) with a
radius (r0), at which a pair of first main lips (4.1) are formed, and a multiplicity of coaxially arranged cutting steps (3.2), which each have a conical step portion (3.2.1), in which in each case a pair of further main lips (4.2a-4.2m) are formed, and a cylindrical step portion (3.2.2), wherein the cylindrical step portions (3.2.2) have, towards the shank (1), an increasingly large
radius (ra-rm), wherein the difference between in each case one of the radii and the next one of the radii (Δr) is chosen such that, upon rotation about the
drill bit axis (0), the pair of further main lips (4.2a-4.2m) arranged therebetween sweep in each case over an annular face (Aa-Am), coaxial with the
drill bit axis (0), on an imaginary plane (E) arranged perpendicularly to the
drill bit axis (0), and the annular faces (Aa-Am) have an identical surface area, such that, during drilling, an identical
chip volume is carried away with each pair of the further main lips (4.2a-4.2m).
