Gundrill and Milling Machines for Molds

IMSA manufactured more than 550 deep drilling machines so far; among these, 450 are operating in the tool and mold making industry, in gun drilling job shops and moldmakers for plastic injection moulding industry and glass industry.

Read a technical introduction about this holemaking technology in our article “the deep drilling process”.

The never-ending quest to research/develop new technology solutions for our automatic gun drilling machines has always played a fundamental role for our team.

Many of the recent innovations applied to deep drilling machines for moldmakers were developed by IMSA (Learn more in this article published in 2019 for IMSA 30th Anniversary)
