Unisig’s UNE6 series of medical gundrilling machines feature extreme depth-to-diameter hole drilling technologies such as the ability to create holes with high precision.
These small-diameter gundrilling machines are said to excel at drilling deep holes in demanding materials, including high-strength titanium and surgical-grade stainless steel, as well as achieve improved concentricity through tool and workpiece counter rotation.
The UNE6-2i features two independent high-speed spindles for production of 10" or 30" maximum part lengths and has available integrated automation onboard. The company says the machine’s high accuracy enables it to drill hole diameters from 0.03-0.25" (0.8-6 mm) and depth-to-diameter ratios from 20:1 to more than 100:1 in workpieces up to 11 lb (5 kg). With a total drilling speed of 28,000 rpm and a 3,000 psi (207 bar) flow-based coolant system, Unisig says the UNE6-2i combines exceptional process control with an intuitive smart control interface.
