Drilling machine

Introduction
 Drilling is a metal cutting process carried
out by a rotating cutting tool to make
circular holes in solid materials.
 Tool which makes hole is called as drill bit
or twist drill.
Drilling machine
 A power operated machine tool which holds
the drill in its spindle rotating at high speeds
and when actuated move linearly against
the work piece produces a hole.
Types of drilling machine.
 Portable drilling machine
 Bench drilling machine
 Radial drilling machine
 Pillar drilling machine
 Gang drilling machine
 Multiple drilling machine
Portable drilling machine
Bench drilling machine
 These are light duty machines used in
small workshops.
 Also called Sensitive drilling machines
because of its accurate and well balanced
spindle.
 Holes of diameter 1 mm to 15 mm.
Bench drilling machine
parts
 Vertical main column
 Base
 Moving drill head
 Work table
 Electric motor
 Variable speed gear
box and spindle feed
mechanism.
working
 Work piece with the exact location marked on
it with the centre punch is clamped rigidly on
the work table.
 spindle axis and center punch indentation are
in same line.
 Machine is started and drill bit is lowered by
rotating feed handle.
 Drill bit touches the work and starts removing
material.
Bench drilling machine
Radial drilling machine
 These are heavy duty and versatile drilling
machine used to perform drilling operate on
large and heavy work piece.
 Holes up to 7.5 cm.
Radial drilling machine
parts
 Heavy base
 Vertical column
 Horizontal arm
 Drilling head
working
 Work piece is marked for exact location and
mounted on the work table.
 Drill bit is then located by moving the radial
arm and drill to the marked location.
 By starting drill spindle motor holes are
drilled.
Drilling machine operation
 Reaming
 Boring
 Counter boring
 Counter sinking
 Spot facing
 Tapping
Reaming
 It is a process of smoothing the surface of
drilled holes with a tool.
 Tool is called as reamer.
 Initially a hole is drilled slightly smaller in
size.
 Drill is replaced by reamer.
 Speed is reduced to half that of the drilling.
Reaming
Boring
 It is process carried on a
drilling machine to
increase the size of an
already drilled hole.
 Initially a hole is drilled
to the nearest size and
using a boring tool the
size of the hole is
increased.
Counter boring
 This process involves
increasing the size of a
hole at only one end.
 Cutting tool will have a
small cylindrical portion
called pilot.
 Cutting speed = two-
thirds of the drilling
speed for the same hole.
Counter sinking
 This is an operation of
making the end of a
hole into a conical
shape.
 Cutting speed = half of
the cutting speed of
drilling for same hole.
Spot facing
 It is a finishing
operation to produce
flat round surface
usually around a drilled
hole, for proper seating
of bolt head or nut.
 It is done using a
special spot facing tool.
Tapping
 Process of cutting
internal threads with a
thread tool called as tap.
 Tap is a fluted threaded
tool used for cutting
internal thread
 Cutting speed is very
slow.
Specification of a radial drilling
machine
 Power capacity eg:
1.5 hp for drilling
motor and 0.5 hp for
elevating motor.
 The range of speed
of spindle eg: 50 to
2800 rpm.
 Length of arm on
which drill head can
traverse. eg: 600 mm.
 Vertical movement of
the arm eg: 500 mm.
 Angular swing of arm
eg: 360˚
 Range to which drill
bit can reach eg: 350
mm to 900 mm.
 Drill depth eg: 32 mm
for steel.
