Grinding Machine -Surface grinding, cylindrical grinding, centerless grinding, All operations

Operations performed on the Drilling Machine –

1. DRILLING OPERATION: In this process, a cylindrical hole is produced by removing metal

by the rotating edges of a cutting tool called as drill. Before drilling the centre of the hole is located on the work piece. Then the centre punch is used to produce an indentation at the centre. The drill point is pressed at this centre point to produce the required hole.

2. REAMING OPERATION – It is an operation of sizing and finishing a hole which has been

previously drilled. In order to finish a hole and to bring it to the accurate size, the hole is drilled slightly undersize. The speed of the spindle is made half that of drilling and automatic feed may be employed. The tool used for reaming is known as reamer which has multiple cutting edges. Reamer cannot originate a hole. It simply follows the path which has been previously drilled and removes a very small amount of metal.

3. BORING OPERATION: This operation is used for enlarging a hole to bring it to the required

size and have a better finish. This operation is also used to machine the internal surface of a hole which is already produced in casting.

4. COUNTER BORING OPERATION: It is the operation of enlarging the end of a hole cylindrically. The

enlarged hole forms a square shoulder with the original hole. This is necessary in some cases to accommodate the heads of bolts, studs and pins.

5. COUNTERSINKING OPERATION: It is the operation of making a cone shaped enlargement of the end of

a hole to providea recess for a flat head screw or countersunk rivet fitted into the hole. The tool used for is called as countersink. Standard countersinks have 60o, 82o included angle.

6. TAPPING OPERATION: It is the operation of cutting internal threads in already

produced hole by means of cutting tool called as a tap.7. GRINDING OPERATION: This operation is performed to finish hardened hole by a

revolving grinding wheel fitted on a spindle and fed up and down.
