I've got a customer who wants to drill holes in Corian and other synthetic
granite substances. The hole size is 1-1/4" diameter.
Anyone know of a chart to figure out RPM, HP, Thrust or any other info?
Thanks for anything you can offer.
Since DuPont sells Corian for a lot of technical and commercial uses, they
probably have the best data:
www.corian.com; 1-800-4-CORIAN
(1-800-426-7426).
Corian is an acrylic-matrix composite. I don't recall what the mineral
filler is -- maybe gypsum. Anyway, it's more like an abrasive plastic than a
mineral. Other synthetics are made of different materials and probably
require a different approach.
Good luck.
