4. Grade Details – Key Grade Characteristics

Grade GW15 is a nano-structured PVD-coated micro-grain carbide specifically developed for micro-drilling operations. Key characteristics include:

• Substrate: Ultra-fine tungsten carbide (0.5μm grain size) with 12% cobalt binder for maximum toughness.
• Coating: Multi-layer TiAlN/TiSiN PVD coating (2.8 μm total thickness) providing exceptional heat resistance up to 1,100°C.
• Hardness: 1800 HV30, ensuring minimal wear rates in aluminum alloy.
• Friction Coefficient: ≤0.35 against steel, reducing built-up edge and extending tool life by up to 40%.
• Oxidation Resistance: Stable performance in dry and MQL machining environments.

6. Chipbreaker Profile

The SGM07832 features a proprietary SGM-series chipbreaker geometry optimized for micro-scale chip formation:

• Front Rake Angle (γ): 13° — promotes smooth chip curling and reduces cutting forces.
• Back Rake Angle (α): 8° — ensures adequate edge strength for intermittent cuts.
• Chipbreaker Width: 0.371 mm — tuned for 1.06mm diameter to prevent chip clogging.
• Chipbreaker Depth: 0.085 mm — creates controlled chip fragmentation for reliable evacuation.
• Edge Preparation: 0.005 mm hone radius (T-land) for micro-edge stability without chipping.

Note: Values are starting recommendations. Optimize based on machine rigidity, workpiece fixturing, and coolant delivery. For 1.06mm diameter, spindle speed (n) = Vc × 1000 / (π × Dc).

10. Operating Guidelines

• Runout Tolerance: Maintain total indicated runout (TIR) ≤ 0.005 mm at the tool tip to prevent premature breakage in 1.06mm drills.
• Peck Cycle: For depths exceeding 16.8 mm, use a peck depth of 0.5×D (0.53 mm) with full retract to break chips.
• Entry Angle: Ensure perpendicular entry (≤0.5° deviation) to avoid uneven loading and chipping.
• Coolant Pressure: Minimum 20 bar (290 psi) for through-tool coolant; external flood coolant requires 15–20 L/min flow rate.
• Pre-Drilling: When enlarging, use a pilot hole 0.05–0.10 mm smaller than 1.06 mm to guide the drill.
• Tool Life Monitoring: Replace when flank wear (VB) reaches 0.08 mm or when hole tolerance exceeds IT8.
• Storage: Store in original packaging at <60% relative humidity to prevent edge oxidation.
