The table below presents cutting recommendations, outlining initial feed rates and cutting speed for materials group based on ISO 513 and VDI 3323 standards.
(1) To ensure optimal performance and tool-life under varying conditions:
Additionally, the operator must ensure the utilization of appropriate coolant media directed to the cutting tip of the blade and right-hand machining (clockwise).
(1) To ensure optimal performance and tool-life under varying conditions:
UBURR is compatible with both CNC machines and electric hand drills, making it suitable for various operational setups and maximizing the manufacturing process.
You can utilize our parametric post routine for milling machines or turning machines to be inserted after each drilling operation:
This case involves a different procedure when front deburring is unnecessary.
In such cases, the tool-holder enters the hole without rotating and begins the linear feed only after passing through the pilot hole. Once the tool has passed through the pilot hole, it retracts to execute the back deburring operation.
For performing back deburring, you can also utilize our parametric post for milling machines or turning machines to be inserted after each drilling operation with the same parameters:
UBURR can perform deburring through interpolation, which not only saves on extra tooling costs but also streamlines the production process by integrating multiple functions into one tool.
Case Study #1 UFIBER Industry: Aerospace Objective: Eliminate burrs produced during cross-hole drilling on a CNC machine by using the UFIBER surface brush, designed as a cross-hole brush with a tailor-made shank, eliminating the need for manual deburring. Application details:

NOTE: The illustrated insert replacement above is demonstrated with a USPOT insert but remains the same when using a UCHAMF insert.
UBACK tool-holders are designed for controlling insert retraction using emulsion, air, or Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) coolant systems. When using air or MQL, seal the tool-holder’s coolant inlet with the supplied BR05006 - M5 x 6 mm set screw.
