Recently been asked to quote on a job that'll be used to calibrate some pretty high end ultrasonic Gear. Basically there's a series of different 25mm thick plates hardened to about 28 HRC that need multiple 1.5mm holes drilled all the way through. The drawings came without tolerances and when I asked the engineer he wanted them within 0.02mm of each other which seemed pretty vague. I have access to a brand new BM-63VE that a good friend of mine owns which I'd prefer using as I don't trust the wear in either of my mills for this job. Has anyone had any luck with similar jobs? I don't even know what to quote but I've offered to drill a sample before I give an accurate quote. I feel like this job has been turned down by a few other people before me, breaking a drill is apparently not an option either.
