Deep hole drill comprising a coating

1. Deep-hole drill having at least one essentially rectilinear flute with one or several cutting edges, a guide section that is at least partly coated, wherein the coated part defines a guide section, characterized in that the guide section comprises a first coating extending over the its effective length in relation to guiding the drill tip and, wherein additionally a second coating is applied only in an area at the tip of the drill in the cutting region which was not previously coated with the first coating or which was sharpened in order to produce nearly identical conditions during the first use cycle as during the following use cycles, the region of which extends over an axial length that, at most, corresponds to double the nominal diameter of the drill.

2. Deep-hole drill according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first coating extends over a length that is at least perceptibly greater than the nominal diameter.

3. Deep-hole drill according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first coating comprises a layer based on Ti and/or Al and/or Cr and/or Zr and/or carbon as well as combinations thereof as well as their nitrides and/or carbides and/or borides as well as oxides and in that the second coating comprises a layer based on Ti and/or Al and/or Cr and/or Zr and/or carbon and combinations thereof as well as their nitrides and/or carbides and/or borides as well as oxides.

4. Recycling method for a deep-hole drill, characterized by the steps of:

(a) providing a deep-hole drill according to claim 1 , which has symptoms of wear and tear on the drill tip;

(b) removing the second coating;

(c) in a step subsequent to step (b), coating the surface of the deep-hole drill from which coating was removed in step (b) with a further coating.

5. Deep-hole drill according to claim 2 , wherein the first coating extends over at least eight times the nominal diameter of the drill.

6. Recycling method according to claim 4 , wherein, in (b), the second coating is completely removed.

7. Recycling method according to claim 6 , wherein the second coating is removed by means of re-sharpening.

8. Recycling method according to claim 4 , wherein, in (c), the further coating comprises same as the original second coating.

9. A method for processing a deep-hole drill having at least one essentially rectilinear flute with one or several cutting edges, a guide section that is at least partly coated, wherein the coated part defines a guide section, comprises the steps of:

(a) applying a first coating to the deep-hole drill over a predetermined length in relation to guiding the drill tip;

(b) applying a second coating to a drill tip area, wherein the drill tip area was not previously coated with the first coating or was sharpened in order to produce early identical conditions during the first use cycle as during the following use cycles;

(c) removing the second coating by means of re-sharpening; and

(d) applying a third coating to the area where the second coating is removed, wherein the third coating comprises the second coating.

10. Deep-hole drill comprising a drill tip and a guide section that is at least coated in part, wherein the guide section comprises a first coating extending over an effective length of the guide section and a second coating applied to the drill tip in a cutting region,

wherein the drill tip is coated only by the second coating or is sharpened in order to produce nearly identical conditions during the first use cycle as during the following use cycles; and

wherein the cutting region extends over an axial length that, at most, corresponds to double the nominal diameter of the drill.
