Types of nozzles to drill for metal cutting

Industry produces various types of nozzles on the drill used for grinding and polishing, drilling angle and sharpening processing / agricultural animals and birds, as well as the cutting of sheet materials.

Metal cutting using different tools, the most popular of them are: "Cricket", "Scissors", "Steel beaver" and "Jigsaw."

Nozzle on the drill "cricket"

"Cricket" - is a universal device, which is, in fact, Nibbler. The spectrum of use of this device is quite extensive.

"Cricket" is used when cutting:

• black sheet and stainless steel, copper and aluminum and a plastic sheet;
• in the horizontal and vertical planes, as well as for internal cutting;
• sheeting and metal, as well as other thin sheet material (tin, baking foil, etc.).

When using the nozzle "Cricket" is necessary to follow the recommendations of the enterprise-producer according to the type and thickness of the material being measured in mm. Also keep in mind that the electric tool speed must be at least 1500 and not more than 3000 rpm.

Nozzle on the drill cutting "Scissors" metal

"Scissors" - this is the most well-known and common type of nozzle used in metal processing.

This device is used for cutting sheet metal profile without bends or waves with a large radius. It is used in figural carving with a small radius cuts.

Nozzle "Steel beaver"

The design and functional form baits "Steel beaver" similar mean "cricket", with the only difference that the device can be used when processing workpieces of greater thickness.

This feature increases the possibility of multiple devices of this type, but otherwise they are similar.

The nozzle rotates around the cutter shaft at 360 °, which is very convenient when working.

Nozzle on the drill "Jigsaw"

This type of device is used more for the treatment of wooden surfaces. With their use can cut lumber planks and other large thickness and cut complex patterns.

For the treatment of metal using the "Jigsaw" nozzle, special sawing inserted into it, and the work (screwdriver) in tandem with this nozzle is similar to using reciprocating saws, which is a kind of manual electric tool.

Design and how they work

The operating principle of nozzles used for cutting metal, is to transform the rotary motion of the electric motor shaft into a translatory motion of the cutting mechanism.

Nozzles for metal cutting drill chuck and fixed in a given operating state using the release button (key) of the tool used.

IMPORTANT!(Click to see)

In devices "cricket" type and "Steel beaver" work the cutting mechanism is similar to the principle of action Punch office when firing pin pierces the thin holes of small diameter along the entire length of cut surface. Translation along the section line gives the force generated by a person.

The nozzle type "Jigsaw" cutting blade is moving "back and forth", and the effort to place the cut gives people.

The principle of operation of devices such as "scissors" action similar to ordinary scissors, with the only difference that nozzles in one of the cutting blades can be fixed rigidly and only the second - movably.

Structurally, all nozzles are made up of:

• housing - being the basis for the construction in which the cutting parts are arranged and the mechanism converting rotational motion into linear (reducer);
• cutting elements - painting, striker or knives;
• shank - which connecting element between the gearbox and drill chuck (screwdriver);
• units and componentsProviding ease of use (pen) and the reliability of fastening (fasteners). Different devices may be different or absent.

How to apply

Attachment to a drill for metal processing must be used according to the operating instructions, manufacturer's designed. The instructions defined list of materials that are available to the processing of those or other device, and their parameters.

General requirements for the proper use can be summarized as follows:

1. Drill (screwdriver) must have the necessary technical characteristics (capacity, number of revolutions per minute) for performing metal cutting operations and be technically intact.
2. The nozzle used is set in the chuck of the electric hand tool and fixed reliably.
3. If necessary, set the handle and additional fastening elements - if any design.
4. When performing complex work preparing devices to ensure that the required operations - bracket for permanent installation drill and other structural elements.
5. In carrying out the cutting is necessary to monitor the progress of the operation, in the case of metal biting you want to disable the tool and remove the cause, he was summoned.
6. Work in protective clothing and using personal protective equipment.
7. After completion of the work necessary to remove the resulting chips, peel and remove the instrument on the storage location.

Other tips on the drill used for repair purposes

As has been described above, the industry produces various types of attachments, other than those considered in this article.

The presence of various devices greatly expands the functionality of and demand for drill and screwdriver, and also eliminates the need to purchase a special tool designed for narrow- use.

With the help of special nozzles can be:

• perform sharpening drills and drilling at a certain angle;
• grind and polish surfaceMade of various materials - metal, wood, natural and artificial stone, as well as plastic;
• plucking poultry and processed skins pets for later use, or at slaughter.

What attachment to choose and where to buy it, each user decides independently, depending on the requirements of these devices and their locations.

Electric drill and screwdriver - a widely functional tool, about the possibilities that everyone should know!
