CFRP “W-Point” Drill Eliminates Problems of
Fraying and Delamination
Drilling in CFRP can be difficult because three
major considerations have to be addressed to
successfully produce a clean cut: (1) hole quality
entering and exiting the workpiece, (2) hole
diameter and (3) drill life. To address these
issues LMT Onsrud has developed the CFRP
Drill with a “W” point, which features a specially
engineered geometry and a Diamond-Like
Carbon (DLC) coating.
