Flexible Gundrilling for Medical Applications

June 1, 2022
Technologies for extreme depth-to-diameter hole drilling, including holes with outstanding precision – and small-diameter gundrilling machines for drilling deep holes in demanding materials, like high-strength titanium and surgical-grade stainless steel.

UNISIG’s IMTS 2022 exhibit – at booth 339159 – will focus on the technologies for extreme depth-to-diameter hole drilling, including the ability to create holes with outstanding precision. The UNE6 Series small-diameter gundrilling machines stand out at drilling deep holes in demanding materials, including high-strength titanium and surgical-grade stainless steel, and achieve superior concentricity through tool and workpiece counter rotation.

UNISIG also will highlight production of medical parts on the UNE6-2i – with two independent, high-speed spindles for production of 10-in. or 30-in. maximum part lengths and available integrated automation onboard. The machine's high accuracy allows it to drill hole diameters from 0.03-0.25 in. (0.8 mm-6 mm) and depth-to-diameter ratios from 20:1 to more than 100:1 in workpieces up to 11 lb (5 kg).

With 28,000 rpm total drilling speed and a 3,000 psi (207 bar) flow-based coolant system, the UNE6-2i combines exceptional process control with an intuitive smart control interface.

Customers in industries that include aerospace, automotive, energy, firearms, hydraulics, defense, and oil and gas, as well as medical and moldmaking, can consult with application engineers and technical sales staff at IMTS to discuss optimization of applications including drilling and beyond.

UNISIG provides comprehensive machine, tooling and automation solutions for customers around the world from its manufacturing and headquarters center in Menomonee Falls, Wis. In addition to US-built and designed BTA, gundrilling, trepanning, skiving and multi-process CNC machines, it offers custom-designed systems and complete process engineering, along with full customer and application support.
