Industrial Product Development, Prototype Machinery, and Deep Hole Gundrilling 
Engineering-driven solutions from concept through functional prototype and manufacturable hardware.

Deep-hole deviation can affect more than exit position. Learn how drilling depth influences wall thickness, parallel passages, intersections, and overall component geometry.

Mechanical Designs & Solutions | Houston, Texas Deep-hole accuracy depends on more than the drilling machine, cutting tool, and process parameters. The condition of the material itself can also influence how a long hole develops through a component. This can become particularly important when gundrilling forged materials. Forging can produce directional grain flow, residual stresses, and localized variations in mechanical properties. In a deep-hole application, these variatio
