Drilling Protection
Drilling Protection
(OP)
Hi everyone,
I have a design challenge here, and i hope someone can help me,
I need to develop a mechanical solution that provide drilling protection of an enclosure,
knowing that i have a constraints in the thickness of the material, to be 2mm max.
I suggested to increase the hardness of a steel enclosure, but i'm not sure,
Is there any method that will assure that not drill will be able to penetrate any further, maybe some kind of trap that will hold the motor from rotating,
Thanks in advance,
ATarek

thank you for your answer,
I mean protection against drilling, drilling proof,
Thanks in advance,

Like a safe? They use high-hardness steel, but even that can be drilled with the right tools. At least one type of drill-proof safe door uses a glass plate behind the steel, such that if the glass is broken, it releases a catch that prevents opening of the door...but that still doesn't prevent something penetrating the door.

When the thief (???????) tries to drill through the wall, he can drill through the outside, but the cloth weave traps the spinning drill bit and jams it before it can cut through the second or third layer.

About the DLC coating, How much does it cost (rough estimation), and if you know a lab or an entity that can provide me with the service of coating samples, for testing purposes,
Thanks in advance,

Caution.
Drill-tip angles are a pain: the flatter the drill-tip geometry, then the better the desired hole-quality will be [IE minimal tapered-shoulder-ring at base of the hole]. However: we would always go-back and 'smooth-down' [drill-thru, deburr, chamfer] the 'ring' left on the end of the hole.
Another approach...
In aerospace we often use 'spot-faces' with precision 'depth-stop' to 'drill-out' spot-welds in the top-layer of an Assy... leaving underlying layers [skins, stringers or doublers, etc] fully-intact. However... we always go-back and 'smooth-down' any 'stubble/flash' left on the underlying layer surface.
