Auto-Tuning Ultrasonic Drill This Auto-Tuning Ultrasonic Drill is fully self-tuning which means that once you have properly attached the tool, you turn it on and adjust the power for the material you are machining. This ultrasonic drill is designed to drill 0.5mm - 4.0mm holes, engrave (with a solid die) up to 8mm, and cut hard brittle materials by using ultrasonic energy. It will drill through precious stones, semi-precious stones, ferrite, silicon, glass, and ceramics. This process is completed by the solid-state transducer transforming A/C current into mechanical vibration of about 20 KHz per second. Just feed the included 220 grit, graded silicon carbide abrasive onto the tool and work piece to drill or grind your piece, forming a hole that is the same shape as the tool. Ultrasonic cutting is fast and clean. It usually outperforms diamond drilling tools and the consumable items are more cost effective. For example, a diamond drill bit usually costs between $1.00 and $5.50 and will last from 1/2 hole to 2 - 3 holes. The drill tube for the ultrasonic costs from $.08 to $.24 each and lasts for 10 - 20 holes in agate and 50 - 100 holes in glass. A 1mm hole can be cut in an agate slab that is 4mm thick in about 60 seconds. The same can be done to glass in about 15 seconds. This machine comes with: 5 horns A propane torch Flux Silver solder Tools Spare fuses 5 lb of 220 grit, graded silicon carbide Pump Water manifold In addition, you will receive 10 meters (25 tubes per meter) of the sizes of your choice. The tubes come in 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm, 3.0mm, 3.5mm, 4.0mm, and 5.0mm. The drill press option allows a vertical movement of about 1" ( 28mm) for controlled drilling into the workpiece. This tight sliding vertical movement allows you to mount your material in a fixture to get controlled drilling for beads and other products. It is especially useful when there is a need to drill from both sides. The option consists of the slide assembly and new extended mast. Although the vast majority of machines sold by Lapidary Mart are made in America, these high-quality ultrasonic drills are imported from Taiwan. They have been counted as the most reliable ultrasonic on the market for the last 25 years. **Please tell us what drill tube sizes you want with your order in the comments section of the order.**
