  Kristine McclainAug 31, 2025
  Your Scheppach drill bit may be burning due to several reasons: 1. The speed might be incorrect, so you may need to change the speed. 2. Chips may not be coming out of the hole, so retract the drill bit frequently to remove chips. 3. The drill bit could be dull, requiring you to resharpen it. 4. You might be feeding too slowly; increase the feed rate to allow the drill bit to cut properly.
