Wet diamond core drilling is seen as the fastest and most economical way to drill precise cylindrical openings in reinforced concrete. Drilling reinforced concrete is challenging because of the combination of the hardness of the concrete material, and the difficulty of cutting the steel reinforcing bars which are embedded in it. The cutting tools required are diamond segment tipped core bits, since they perform best on hard concrete, but steel rebar is difficult to cut with diamond segments. It takes a powerful motor to drive the core bits, and it needs to deliver the correct speed with the required torque to complete the job. AGP states that its line of wet diamond core drilling machines have been designed to satisfy all of these requirements.
