What diamond drilling?

Almost every private developer or any other person making repairs in the apartment, faced with the problem of punching holes in hard surfaces (concrete, reinforced concrete and masonry and so on).

Many people in this situation use a hammer, becauseThis tool has good penetrating power while mobile.But everyone knows that this unit works very noisy, dirty, and the resulting hole, to put it mildly, are quite unpresentable appearance and require time-consuming further processing.

The modern building has long been used another method - diamond drilling . This method allows precise, without too much dust, quiet and, above all, beautiful to drill into reinforced concrete or concrete necessary technological hole.

This drilling holes in concrete is carried out on a variety of surfaces - vertical and horizontal.This is possible grading angle drilling from 45˚ to 90˚, and the hole diameter of 20 to 500 mm.

For such a method is characterized by high drilling speed dive into the material surface, it is about 5 cm per minute.Drilling holes in concrete is invariably accompanied feeding fluid directly into the crown of the drill that allows the process continuously and without dust.

Features diamond drilling

This kind of concrete drilling is widely used in the following works:

  • concrete shtroblenie for electrical wiring;
  • when drilling holes for water pipes, heating risers, chutes and gas pipelines and other;
  • when drilling the foundations of buildings for general connections to the mains utilities;
  • drilling a hole for installation of HVAC systems;
  • drilling slabs for the installation of automatic fire extinguishing systems and pozharopreduprezhdeniya;
  • during removal of walls and ceilings;
  • at recess niches for furniture, safes, tanks and other equipment.

This method of drilling has several advantages, which include:

  • almost perfectly flat shape of the holes, which does not require additional time consuming processing;
  • high accuracy of the holes;
  • quite good speed of work undertaken;
  • wide range of drilling applications of this type, moreover, the possibility thereof in a confined space, on inclines and in inconvenient locations;
  • no dust in the commission of works, as well as low vibration and noise;
  • due to the lack of impact, no other form of damage such as cracks, chips.

As drilling concrete - especially diamond processing

In order to drill a hole in the concrete using a special drill for concrete, another name - the diamond crown.It's a pipe having different diameters.On one side it soldered cutting elements, the other side of it is attached to the motor shaft by means of a special device.

Before drilling concrete such a tool, make sure you have the facility of access to water.Water is essential for cooling the diamond bit cutting edge and to flush the sludge to cut a hole.

Additionally, before making hole in the concrete, the equipment necessary to install and secure hence in drilling location to be space for these purposes.

Diamond drilling of holes is quite technologically advanced and modern way of working on concrete.Of course, this kind of work requires certain costs, but they pay for themselves with silence, precision slotted holes, as well as the absence of further treatment and exhausting cleaning.
