This inexpensive Shars drill ALSO bores and faces! An AWESOME tool! Using CCMT or CCGX inserts means it works great on both steel and aluminum! Kicking twist drills to the curb!

Eco drills from ceratizit are like those and drill really well to.
Have you got any tips on programming a lathe with this tool in fusion 360?
Should do an episode on your fusion 360 programing shortcuts when using this tool.
They are great. It can do a nice countersink to the hole,chamfer the edge and radius the edge. A tool well worth having.
Just wondering if anyone has some tips on how to program this tool in Fusion 360. I would like to use it for initial drill and then continue boring with the same setup. In my head the drill operation requires tool offset to be centerline of the holder like a drill bit, but then when i go to bore the tip of the insert is offset from centerline…Losing my mind at the moment.

And you can turn the OD AND BRAKE EDGES TO right?
Thats neat
"It's not really clocked… well it was, but I turned that part off"… LOL!!!
These are not new….. and yes they do need to be clocked
Good vids.
Note, The polished inserts for aluminum are not needed. Just use regular steel inserts, they break the chip better. Sharp polished inserts leave a great finish, but dont break a chip well unless pushed hard.
Sandvik u-drills are great for punching fast holes in almost any material.
Agree, put a flat on that drill, after you clock it 180 degrees. Run tools upside down.
why not just keep the spindle speed all the time i.e. 100 rpm over the critical speed?
Can,you cnc drill lath machine offset fanuce cantrol
Upload the long shaft boring vedio
They are not new.also you do have to clock them especially on steel.also there is a minimum hole diameter.you cant drill undersize or else you will destroy the drill.you cant drill a hole smaller than what the drill is designed for
Check out Coromant 880-series drills, we use them all the time and they have inserts for almost every material like aluminum, steel, stainless steel, titanium etc etc. I think the smallest 880-drill goes down to like 14 mm (little more than 1/2")
Boy that's cool for 2016. Been doing that since 1995
i abom79`d it in hahah
Although they will not do a square corner I use ultradex drills on my cnc lathe and they work great. Drill and then rough boring before switching to a heavy metal boring bar for finishing the bores. On the other hand my smallest ultradex is .625. I have never bought them from shars but I did notice they also sell the ultradex line. These drills are made in the USA also which is nice.
You will want to orientate the drill exactly opposite of the way you have it in the video for ease of programming when you bore with it.
I like your videos, just in case you didn't know you should have faced from top of part down. I used similar tools from name brand tool makers and are great for multi tasking. Thanks showing a cheap source of tooling for drill/bore tools
You can do the same operation with the Performax Drills from SECO Tools, faster and reliable
Tools like this have been avaliable for more than 20 years. You can also use it to turn outside diameters.
Hey Cool RMSchaller bins.. nice!
Great video as usual sir
I always use spade drills,are these better
I have the 5/8 version of this tool, running on the same 15l slant Pro lathe. I haven't had much success with it though. When drilling the back side of the insert always cracks (probably from rubbing). Cutting recommendations for it are not available from Shars and they don't seem to understand when I send them a message asking about it. And, Path Pilot and CAM software are not liking the tool being able to do more than one type of operation. It makes a good boring bar though.
John, did you ever end up setting this tool up in Fusion360? I'd like to see how you did that, someday.
set it up with the insert oriented like a boring bar, and on center like a drill. use the recommended feed/speed provided by the manufacturer. you try what you did in the video on a harder material and you gonna destroy that cub drill. LOL, you making machinists giggle …..
AVOID SHARS TOOLS (DISCOUNT MACHINE on ebay)!
I've ordered from them a bunch of times, almost every time they shorted me one thing or another. Never said anything about backorders on the packing slip, they just didn't send the stuff. I called and they would send the stuff right out, no big deal. BUt my last two orders they shorted me as usual, but now they don't respond to emails. I called them and they offered to send the missing parts… but never did. Called again, they promised to credit the cost. You guessed it… they didn't.
I'LL NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN, and if you do CHECK EACH ITEM YOU ORDERED, SOMETHING WILL BE MISSING!!!
sandvik
Why would a saw cut make it out of round? Did you mean that the faced-off surface wasn't square to the centerline?
That's nuts! Will have to get one for my manual lathe
Hi John, not sure if any one said yet but we use these tools and to machine the O/D you just run the spindle in reverse and machine from the back 8-)Regards Adrian
I've been doing this for 40+ years, I just use a milling slot drill only use drills under 6mm, 1/4"
you didnt have turret before? and you can cut outer diameter with that tool too just use M4
