Autodrill adds option to cutting machines

Autodrill has enabled a manufacturer of oxyacetylene cutting machines to offer a hole drilling option.

Because making small, accurate holes through thicker material is sometimes impossible with a laser unit, the manufacturer researched putting an automatic drill on its machine.

By drilling all the holes with a standard Autodrill machine, smaller holes are now possible through even the thickest materials due to the optional peck drill features available.

The customer is also considering placing multiple spindle drill units on a single fixture, to drill many small holes at the same time.

Annular cutters with a positive plug ejection system can also be used for some applications.

All the equipment is rated for continuous duty production work.

Autodrill offers free application and design assistance during the quote and post-sale process.

Free CAD drawings are available for all equipment.

A search for Autodrill on Youtube and other video sites turns up a number of example videos.
