What are modular drilling systems?<\/h2>\n

Modular drills are tools that consist of several interchangeable components, typically a drill head and a shank. These two components are connected via an interface and can be flexibly combined and exchanged. With the new BT 800, G\u00fchring now has an innovative modular drilling system in its programme. Modular tools have a number of advantages over monolithic tools, which consist of a single continuous piece of material without interchangeable components. You can find out what these are here.<\/p>\n

3 advantages of modular drilling systems<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Advantage 1 <\/span>
\nGreater economy<\/span><\/h3>\n

Especially in large diameters, solid carbide drills are expensive to purchase, often without their performance being utilised at all. The BT 800 drilling system consists of a steel cutting body and replaceable solid carbide drill heads. This design ensures that you get an inexpensive tool with solid carbide performance \u2013 an economical alternative to solid carbide drills. The BT 800 modular system is more economical to purchase, especially for diameters > 14 mm. The BT 800 from G\u00fchring promises simple, fast handling in combination with a long tool life and high performance.<\/p>\n

Advantage 2 <\/span>
\nHigh flexibility<\/span><\/h3>\n

A modular drilling system enables the use of different drill heads on a standardised carrier. This allows you to quickly adapt the tools to different materials or processing requirements. Customised solutions are also possible, as the drill heads of the BT 800 can be flexibly adapted to your individual requirements in addition to the standard designs. As a result, you benefit from unlimited design freedom and maximum performance.<\/p>\n

Advantage 3 <\/span>
\nTime and cost savings<\/span><\/h3>\n

With modular systems, only the drill head needs to be replaced when worn, not the entire tool. This reduces tooling costs compared to solid carbide drills. In addition, the drill head of the BT 800 can be reground up to two times. A modular drilling system also reduces capital commitment, storage costs and logistics costs. Instead of keeping several different tools in stock, it is sufficient to only have the required drill heads in stock. You also save on set-up times with a modular tool: the BT 800 interchangeable head is changed directly in the machine, which is significantly faster than changing a monolithic drill. This minimises your tool set-up times and productivity.<\/p>\n

Conclusion <\/span>
\nWhy modular drilling systems are worthwhile<\/span><\/h2>\n

Modular drilling systems such as the BT 800 from G\u00fchring impress with an intelligent combination of economy, flexibility and efficiency. They enable the use of high-quality solid carbide drill heads at significantly lower costs, as only the part of the tool that is prone to wear needs to be replaced. At the same time, they can be flexibly adapted to different applications \u2013 be it through the quick change of drill heads or customised special solutions. Modular systems also offer clear advantages in terms of time and cost savings: lower storage requirements, reduced set-up times and simpler handling directly at the machine. Modular drilling systems are the ideal solution for anyone looking for maximum performance with minimum effort.<\/p>\n
