Introduction A drill is a tool with a rotating drill bit used for drilling holes in various materials significance.

The drills are used for foundation construction in the building industry. Drilling is accomplished most typically by using a twist drill. The twist drill is most commonly used variety of drill, and twist drills are specified according to the end by which they are held, called shank. Drills may be taper shank of parallel shank and the chips must exit through the flutes of the twist to the outside of the tool. Drill bits may be made of either carbon steel or high speed steel and high speed steel is used 85% in the world for cutting. The feed and speed are also main things. The cutting speed is the speed at which the cutting edge passes over the material and it is usually expressed in meters per minute and the feed of the tool is the distance it moves along for each revolution of the work.

Drilling Characteristics The characteristics of drilling that set it apart from other powered metal cutting operations are:

The chips must exit out of the hole created by the cutting. Chip exit can cause problems when chips are large and/or continuous. The drill can wander upon entrance and for deep holes. For deep holes in large workpieces, coolant may need to be delivered through the drill shaft to the cutting front. Of the powered metal cutting processes, drilling on a drill press is the most likely to be performed by someone who is not a machinist

Drill Press Work Area The workpiece is held in place by a clamp since cutting forces can be quite large. It is dangerous to hold a workpiece by hand during drilling since cutting forces can unpredictably get quite large and wrench the part away. Wood is often used underneath the part so that the drill bit can overshoot without damaging the table. Various types 1. Multispindle The multispindle drilling machines is commonly referred to as a multispindle drill press. This type of drilling machine is especially useful when you have a large number of parts with many holes located close together. 2. Bench drill The bench drill is used for drilling holes through materials including a range of woods, plastics and metals. It is normally bolted to a bench so that it cannot be pushed over and that larger pieces of material can be drilled safely.

3. Pedestal drilling machine Pedestal drilling machine is a machine which is used for drilling metals and other elements Radial drill 4. Radial Drilling machine is a machine fitted with a rotating cutting tool called drill bit. This radial drilling machine is used for drilling holes in various materials such as steel, cast iron and. The use of machine is in the metal working industry. 5. Numerical controlled drill machine
