Unit-III(B ) Drilling and Boring Machines By D. Kanaka Raja Department of mechanical engineering, AITS
Drilling is the operation of producing circular hole in the work-piece by using a rotating cutter called DRILL. The machine used for drilling is called drilling machine. The drilling operation can also be accomplished in lathe, in which the drill is held in tailstock and the work is held by the chuck. The most common drill used is the twist drill. It is the simplest and accurate machine used in production shop. Drilling
Drilling machine Drilling machine Spindle Turns drill to advance into work (hand or automatically) Work table Holds workpiece rigidly in place as hole drilled Used primarily to produce holes in metal Other operations: tapping, reaming, boring, counter boring, countersinking, spot-facing
Working principal of drilling machine The rotating edge of the drill exerts a large force on the workpiece and the hole is generated. The removal of metal in a drilling operation is by shearing and extrusion.

Jig Boring Machine Jig boring machine resembles in appearance to a vertical milling machine. Rugged enough for heavy cuts and sensitive enough for light cuts . Essential for modern mass production The machining accuracy of jig boring machine is very high, within a range of 0.0025 mm.
101 Need of Jig Boring Machine Jig boring machines are mainly to perform machining operations like Boring. Drilling. Reaming. Counter boring holes in metal jigs Counter-sinking holes in metal work pieces. Some jig boring machines are used for accurately enlarging the Existing holes. Making their diameters highly accurate Boring can correct hole location, size, or alignment and can produce a good finish if a fine feed and correct tool are used.
102 Need of Jig Boring Machine Jig boring can also maintain high accuracy between multiple holes or holes and surfaces. Some jig boring machines are designed to machine holes with the tightest tolerances possible with a machine tool. The constant demand for accuracy within many branches of metalworking has been fulfilled with the help of applications possible by jig-boring machines.
Jig Boring Machine Jig boring machines are used in precision tool room applications for locating and boring holes in Jigs. Fixtures. Gauges. And other precision parts. To prevent the influence of ambient temperature on machining accuracy Jig boring machines should be installed in a special environmental enclosures (i.e., in a temperature controlled rooms) with temperature maintained at a level of 20 °C. Jig borers can be used as coordinate measuring machine for inspection and precision layout operation . 103

Kinematic System of general purpose drilling machine and their principle of working
Kinematic System of general purpose drilling machine and their principle of working Mechanisms to enable transform and transmit motion(s) from the power source(s) to the cutting tool and the workpiece for the desired machining action. a typical kinematic system of a very general purpose drilling machine, i.e., a column drilling machine having 12 spindle speeds and 6 feeds. The kinematic system enables the drilling machine the following essential works;
Kinematic System of general purpose drilling machine and their principle of working Cutting motion: The cutting motion in drilling machines is attained by rotating the drill at different speeds ( r.p.m .). Like centre lathes, milling machines etc, drilling machines also need to have a reasonably large number of spindle speeds to cover the useful ranges of work material, tool material, drill diameter, machining and machine tool conditions. The drill gets its rotary motion from the motor through the speed gear box (SGB) and a pair of bevel gears. For the same motor speed, the drill speed can be changed to any of the 12 speeds by shifting the cluster gears in the SGB. The direction of rotation of the drill can be changed, if needed, by operating the clutch in the speed reversal mechanism, RM-s shown in the figure.
Kinematic System of general purpose drilling machine and their principle of working Feed motion In drilling machines, generally both the cutting motion and feed motion are imparted to the drill. Like cutting velocity or speed, the feed (rate) also needs varying (within a range) depending upon the tool-work materials and other conditions and requirements. drill receives its feed motion from the output shaft of the SGB through the feed gear box (FGA), and the clutch. The feed rate can be changed to any of the 6 rates by shifting the gears in the FGB. And the automatic feed direction can be reversed, when required, by operating the speed reversal mechanism, RM-s as shown
Tool work mounting The taper shank drills are fitted into the taper hole of the spindle either directly or through taper socket(s). Small straight shank drills are fitted through a drill chuck having taper shank. The work piece is kept rigidly fixed on the bed (of the table). Small jobs are generally held in vice and large or odd shaped jobs are directly mounted on the bed by clamping tools using the T-slots made in the top and side surfaces of the bed as indicated Kinematic System of general purpose drilling machine and their principle of working
