In this 60-second troubleshooting video, OSG discusses drill runout and the role setup plays in optimizing tool life.
Drill runout is a problem that can occur in machining when the machine or the tool holder is not properly aligned along a central axis, causing the drill to flare out. This effect is more pronounced at the tip of the tool and especially when dealing with long overhangs.
In many cases a key indicator of runout is uneven tool wear, especially towards the margin and shoulder of the tool. Watch the short video above to learn more.
