Defence
Defence engineering involves the manufacture, maintenance, and upgrade of vehicles, vessels, and equipment used in demanding operational environments. These activities frequently require drilling and modifying holes in high-strength and armoured steels, both during new manufacture and when upgrading or repairing existing platforms.
Working with hardened and wear-resistant materials places high demands on holemaking processes, where consistency and tool life are critical. Drilling operations must be repeatable and controlled to maintain accuracy across multiple components. Portable, modular drilling systems, combined with cutting tools developed specifically for wear plate and armoured steels, allow defence engineers to carry out fabrication, modification, and maintenance work efficiently while maintaining reliable performance in specialist applications.
