TOYOKAWA, AICHI, JAPAN―August 20, 2025―OSG Corporation today announced the release of the DIA-MXD, a next-generation carbide drill engineered specifically for the precision machining of ceramics and glass.


Machining ceramics for applications such as semiconductor manufacturing equipment, optical components, and electronic devices presents significant challenges, including inconsistent tool life, unexpected breakage, and rapid wear. These issues are often caused by the sudden delamination of the coating layer, leading to accelerated tool degradation. The DIA-MXD carbide drill addresses these challenges through the integration of a highly wear-resistant HDG coating and a newly developed carbide alloy that offers exceptional adhesion. This advanced combination effectively prevents coating delamination, ensuring stable performance and extended tool life even in demanding applications.

The DIA-MXD is suitable for a wide range of ceramic materials, including alumina, zirconia, silicon carbide, as well as quartz glass. It is available in diameters ranging from 0.05 mm to 2 mm, supporting high-precision requirements across industries.
