Mollart reports that a UK-based packaging company has ordered a Drillsprint LD2-750 two-spindle gundrill. The machine is being used to produce moulds for plastic bottles requiring a heavier wall section, incorporating pre-formed cores with accurate and uniform positioning of cooling holes within thin-wall section areas of the moulds.

Hole sizes being created by the packaging specialist are between 3.3 and 22 mm diameter by up to 400 mm deep, although in terms of capacity, the machine is able to produce holes between 2 and 25 mm diameter by 750 mm in depth.
