Flowdrill

FlowDrilling and Tapping form a key part of our TLCC Smart Design Production process where customers benefit from a 50% reduction in production time and costs. Our innovative approach not only guarantees accuracy and reliability of parts, but allows customers to reap the rewards of a more efficient production line.

How it works

FlowDrilling provides an innovative, more reliable and cost-efficient connection alternative to traditional fastening methods such as weld nuts or nut-serts.
Existing material is used to create a strong and uniform fixing, increasing the surface area that can be tapped with no weak points.
Sizes range from M2 to M30 inc BSP sizes in material thicknesses from 0.5mm to 10mm with different material applications:
- Mild Steel
- Stainless Steel
- Copper
- Brass
- Bronze
- Aluminium

Key Benefits

Stronger fixing using existing material available.
No risk of alternative fixings spinning or breaking, both at tapping stage or completed part/product.
Production time and costs incurred reduced by over 50%.
Zero waste.
Complete accuracy to a laser cutting tolerance of +-0.25mm
