A method for drilling holes in a window covering fabric package using the drilling device, that is provided with clamping means for compressing the fabric package, a hollow drill with an internal channel and a drive for the hollow drill, connecting means for cooling means, which are arranged for conducting gas through the internal channel, and suction means for suctioning drilling debris, wherein the drill shaft is provided with a cut out, that runs in longitudinal direction along the drill shaft and forms a discharge channel for the drilling debris, wherein the method comprises the following steps:
- a) placing of the fabric package between the clamping means;
- b) configuring one or more configuration parameters out of a set of configuration parameters, comprising clamping force, rotational speed, feed rate, cooling gas pressure and negative pressure for suctioning;
- c) drilling through the fabric of the fabric package in one drilling step;
- d) conducting of gas through the internal channel for cooling of the drill;
- and e) suctioning of the drilling debris.
