Asinthemacroscale-machiningworld,holemakingisoneofthemost—ifnotthemost—frequentlyperformedoperationsformicromachining.Manyoptionsexistforhowthoseholesarecreated.Eachhasitsadvantagesandlimitations,dependingontherequiredholediameteranddepth,workpiecematerialandequipmentrequirements.Thisarticlecoversholemakingwiththrough-coolantdrillsandthosewithoutcoolantholes,plungemilling,microdrillingusingsinkerEDMsandlaserdrilling.

Whenapplyingfloodcoolant,thedrillitselfblocksaccesstothecuttingaction.“Somewhereabout3to5diametersdeep,thecoolanthastroublegettingdowntothetip,”saidJeffDavis,vicepresidentofengineeringforHarveyToolCo.,Rowley,Mass.“Itbecomeswisetouseacoolant-feddrillatthatpoint.”
