Remove the tap using the EDM.

[@BruceBoschek]

EDM is the only way to go on an expensive or irreplaceable part. Very nicely done. Thanks for sharing this.

[@jamespark_85machiningtv]

Thank you.

[@BruceBoschek]

@UCB4w8Vl5ZIScSFyxEeZF_JA A ball mill is a shaker that uses steel balls to remove rust and scale. I think you must mean some other kind of a milling tool, but I don't know which.

[@omyadav6949]

That hole was closed too, It's very difficult job to be done. Any minor mistake can loss a lot of hard work which was done on this components, It was in its final stage, nobody can reject any components by reaching so far.👍

[@Pow3llMorgan]

This is why thread milling is in my opinion superior.

[@BruceBoschek]

I didn't mention a milling tool. Did you mean this in response to Povl Besser's comment? I didn't understand that either.

[@janhammekenbuch142]

Nice video. Always good to see people doing it the right way. A small trick: A piece of duct tape will protect the surrounding area from the sparks, eliminating the need for polishing, in case of a surface tolerance. I had to polish a part for the food industry, after fixing a broken tap. It took forever, due to very fine surface tolerances.

[@ILoveAllthingstech]

Dull taps are the most expensive tool in most shops.

[@joonastimonen5114]

[@2jzhx60]

What a great DIY guide. Just have to get my portable EDM tool

[@tfp777]

Definitely the best way to remove a broken tap, saved me many times.

[@Burnenbrighter]

I usually just take long punch with a hammer and shatter the tap. Fast simple and easy cleanup. Very effective on taps that size.

[@railgap]

That's why you won't get hired to remove taps fom work like this.

[@justinl.3587]

When we break taps on the machine we usually drill them out with carbide GO drills or carbide spade drills. It works almost every time. Always good to have the EDM as a backup though.

[@Numnutz]

was just about to say this, since we mostly use high speed steel taps, we can just drill them out with the same carbide drill that we used for the pilot hole, clean it up and just use the next tap, or, since most of our work is done on cnc mills, in some special cases we mill the thread

[@Malledeus86]

I was a Wire EDM guy at my last 2 jobs, had a hole popper too for starter holes, and of course this shit haha. You’re the hero of the day when you can fix a party with a tap broke off in it though. Never saw a portable edm though that’s cool.

[@utubeadrianno]

I’m still waiting for the BASS to kick in

[@TheDandyMann]

Basically the edm version of a magdrill. Pretty Cool

[@3duckit]

I do the same work but with a waterjet. Even blind holes. Mine is messier and louder but same results. Thanks for the video.

[@hztn]

Surface is damaged a little, and has caverns. If it's a sealing surface for a hydraulic flange - there can be a leaking. It can be remachined by cutting off around a mm from radial surface, but not every part allow to do that.

[@marcusnilsson7284]

0,3-0,5mm would be enough but true that there may not be that tolerance for it

[@robconcep644]

I would TIG weld a bolt to it and twist it out of the hole. But your way is really cool. Excellent videos. Sincerely Robert

[@t.d.mich.7064]

As a Diemaker I've tapped thousands of holes. Never broke any taps. Not! EDM is the only way to go. Carbide drills and shattering taps with a punch are wives tales. If a tap breaks off, it's in the hole to stay. Excessive torque broke it off, and intermittent cutting a broken one will almost always destroy a carbide drill bit. Punching it out destroys the threads in the hole.

[@nikolaiownz]

I was a olympic master at running this at my old work. Haha

[@Bibibosh]

A master at breaking small taps too.

[@backho12]

I learned that the key to not breaking a tap is to stop one half turn before it breaks.

[@dj6769]

I’ve never seen an EDM at first I thought it was a magnetic drill that’s slicker than snot. (I usually take a blow nozzle to clear debris from a hole with a rag covering flying shrapnel.)

[@briangaudet7661]

you can some times burn a hex and use an allen wrench to work it out if not then the hammer

I would have had it out by the time you finished setting up that machine.

[@themanthemyththelegend1392]

My thought exactly, someones marketing department really did a number on the contractor that machines these....

[@TheyForcedMyHandLE]

The requirements for the job may have consisted of more than just "get the tap out".

[@gregpenner2876]

Just bought one. I got sick and tired of drilling out work hardened exhaust manifold bolts…then the drill bit snaps off. There’s a kit for limited clearance you can attach as well that’s shorter than a 90° drill as well. If it saves my ass at least twice I’ll have gotten my monies worth out of it. Then there’s hex electrodes as well so you can use an Allen wrench instead of snapping off easy outs as well. I’ll give it a try. If it works,cool. If not…I’ve wasted more money on booze and women than that.

[@RingTuned]

Now that I finished the video look at that heat effected zone. That material no longer has these structural strength it was originally rated to have. You have now created a crack point

[@mtn.srlrascu6675]

Was with liquid bro, look again

[@MariusFourie]

Heat? What heat? It was covered in coolant the whole time

[@RingTuned]

@@mtn.srlrascu6675 yes however you can still see the heat effected zone liquid takes some heat away not all.

[@mtn.srlrascu6675]

@@RingTuned it is from electricity that area not from heat. You can have so much heat in the same time with the liquid. It is impossible. Electricity create that area strange like that. I have one to clean stainless steel with the electric arc. It is normal if you look in industrial appliances how is works.

[@mrg8172]

Wow they made that look difficult Now I know who broke the tap

[@arthurmorgan8966]

Not a machinist here, stupid question: Is it possible to weld or braze something to tip of the broken piece, then try to remove it by unscrewing? (Since this machine exists, I suppose no. But why.)

[@supercleanone8038]

3/8” solid carbide end mill, 2000 rpm, break what’s left out

[@bigjimar77]

I would definitely try that first.

[@neilholmes2572]

I was trying to figure out what the part is. Looks like a large cylinder liner apart from those horizontal bore marks. Shame he didn't tell us. But if its high carbon steel and the tap is itself carbide then the mill won't work of course. Also there's the danger the tap will move and smash your end mill, possibly damaging the part. I reckon they went for the safest option here.

It's spent 30 plus minutes and probably charged the customer $1000 for something that can be fixed with a hammer and a hardened center punch in 15 seconds. The great thing about taps especially when they are that large they are very hard which makes them very brittle they explode when hit with a punch.
