Sandvik is new! Trigger New Changes with Asymmetric Design

Flounder swimming in the ocean，To beautiful hermit crabs on the beach.，From a snail that always curls its shell to the right，To the small chemical molecules of certain drugs.，Asymmetry in nature，It's much more common than you think.。Comparison represents neatness.、Steady symmetry，Asymmetry contains the beauty and power of breaking the rules.。When the asymmetry meets the drilling tool，Has created an extraordinarySandvikAlpha™340 Asymmetric thread drilling tool。

Continue the advantage，Break the rules，Asymmetric drilling tools officially debut

2004，SandvikAlpha™330 drilling tools were born，With its compact thread design，It soon opened up the market in the mining industry.。Nowadays，Sandvik continues the advantages of 330 drilling tools.，Draw inspiration from the asymmetrical phenomena of nature，Creatively created SandvikAlpha™340 Asymmetric drilling tool。

Thanks to a short but strong asymmetrical thread design and a strong guiding design，SandvikAlpha™The rigidity of the drill pipe of the asymmetric drilling tool and the accuracy of drilling are greatly guaranteed.，So that that service life of the drill tool is prolonged，But also reduce that cost per meter of drill.。

With an asymmetrical aesthetic. ，Achieve a new generation of industrial products

It's not just art that's aesthetic.，The design of industrial products actually has higher requirements.。A successful industrial product，Except for the fit“Innovation”、“Economy”、“Safe“Beyond the principle，It also needs to pay attention to artistry.，And it's better to be able to“Aesthetics”Combine with function，Be both beautiful and practical。

Many of Sandvik's products follow this design principle.，Not only powerful，It also has industrial beauty.。The latest launch of SandvikAlpha™340 is to carry out this principle to the end.。Compared with conventional drilling tools，What makes it unique is that——Asymmetric thread design。“The difference between an asymmetrical thread and a standard thread is the angle of the flank。”Senior R & D Engineer, SandvikJohn HammargrenExplained。

This kind of design not only brings the aesthetic feeling that breaks through the convention.，It also makes the product better.，“We have improved the thread configuration，When drilling，The stress on the weakest point of the thread is greatly reduced.。”The smaller the stress，The greater the strength of the product，It's more durable.。

With asymmetrical force，Create more wear-resistant and efficient drilling tools

Alpha™340 Asymmetric design reduces pressure levels in critical area，Make it easier to unhook.，The increased thread diameter can effectively improve the anti-fatigue strength of the drill pipe.，And the larger flush hole reduces the risk of jamming the slot。Due to these improvements，Alpha™Service life ratio of 340Alpha™330 extended by 30%。

Alpha™The 340 has emerged thanks to Sandvik's expanding R & D capabilities.。Extensive computer simulation techniques at Sandvik also led to better designs.，The digitization of machining makes more advanced geometric modeling possible.。

“True gold fears no fire.，Good drilling tools are not afraid of challenges.。At present，Alpha™The 340 has been fully field tested in 17 different locations around the world，Tests were conducted under different operating conditions and rock types.，The effect has been unanimously praised by customers.。Alpha™340 is bringing new changes to mine development and tunneling，Look forward to more wonderful performances.。”
