All of the tools currently built by Lammers Micro drill consist of diamond grit abrasive impregnated in a metal bond. The small size of the tool requires us to begin with the best materials available and build to very strict quality standards with tight tolerance and zero runout being the norm. Our tools can be optimized for use on the following common materials as well as many other tough to machine non-metallic materials Aluminas Quartz and Glass Sapphire Carbides such as Silicon Carbide, Boron Carbide, and Tungsten Carbide Zirconia YAG Beryllia Various Composite Materials These tools are either sold as unmounted with just the diamond section and drill tube, or as a mounted tool based the customers requirements. Common adapter mounts include Branson, 1-14 female, 7/8-14 female, 5/8-18 female, Belgian, and Habit. Most common shanks sizes in both brass and steel are also available for mounting. Tight tolerance centerless ground shanks can be specified when required. 5/8 OD centerless ground steel shanks for OptiPro machines are also an option. Industries that benefit from our work are: industries including: Aerospace and Defense Medical device manufactures Optics manufactures Glassware Manufactures Research Universities Ferrite Manufacturing
