Setup instructions for the use of a Hammond & Co. Spraymist Tank on a centre lathe.

The problems of twist drilling deep holes are well known in the engineering industry. Drill wander, poor size control and surface finish, flank wear, binding and breakage are occupational hazards. The operation can be slow and inaccurate in the extreme.

An alternative is the use of Ventec drills which are designed to bring the benefits of gun drilling technology to conventional machine tools. Now for a relatively small outlay, it is possible to equip your machine shop with a system that provides a deep hole drilling capability, which in terms of speed and accuracy, equates favourably with gun drilling.
