Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of metal machining, and particularly relates to a deep hole drill for drilling die steel. Background Art

[0002] Deep hole machining has wide applications in the die industry, such as water channels, oil channels, air holes, single inclined holes, double inclined holes, screw through holes, ejector pin holes, etc. in dies; especially in the machining field of die steel with a hardness above HRC52°, deep hole machining solves the problems of thin holes and long holes that cannot be solved by ordinary drilling machines in die machining, effectively reducing the machining cost of dies. Its defects are as follows: First, in deep hole machining, the cutting situation of the tool cannot be directly observed, and only by working experience can one judge whether the cutting process is normal by listening to the sound during cutting, looking at the chips, feeling the vibration and the temperature of the workpiece by hand. Once the observation of the cutting situation of the tool is not in place and the current drill bit strength is insufficient to meet the cutting of high-hardness materials, the drill bit is likely to break in the hole, resulting in waste of cost and even scrapping of the workpiece. Therefore, when designing the drill bit, the strength and machining safety of the drill bit need to be considered; Second, after cutting, chips cannot be discharged in time and quickly, resulting in difficulty in stabilizing the cutting process, large cutting deformation, poor surface quality of the drilled hole, and at the same time, the cutting chips cannot be discharged in time, making it difficult for the cutting fluid to reach the bottom of the hole and the drill tip, unable to fully cool and lubricate, so that the machining is carried out at a relatively high temperature, greatly reducing the drill bit life and at the same time reducing the drilling quality. Therefore, the chip removal performance of the drill bit needs to be considered. Content of the Utility Model
