Q:
Do you have anything to speed up the reaming process?
We machine some high volume components, and the slowest operation is the reamer.
We currently use a solid carbide drill(Dormer MP-X 3xd) and a carbide reamer ground to size.
I have attached a drawing for your information.
Thanks

Hi George
Thank you for your enquiry. Reaming is always a difficult issue, mainly due to the accuracy needed often limits speeds and feeds. However, Sandvik Coromant do have a solution.
It's the Sandvik 830 Reamer,
Sandvik have an indexable high performance 830 reamer for high speed tight tolerence work in steel and cast iron.
- Ream almost as fast as indexable drilling!
- Feed rate up to 6 times faster than solid carbide reamers
- Quick change replaceable head
- Excellent surface finish with H7 tolerance
