Question | Answer |

To clamp a workpiece correctly with a straight clamp: | you must bolt as close to the workpiece as possible |
When using a sensitive drill press, what should you do as the drill breaks through the workpiece? | ease up on the cutting pressure so the drill doesn't grab the part. |

Carbide drills may be operated at a cutting speed how many times faster than high speed steel drills? | 3 x faster |
A drill which is ground with lips of unequal length, will drill a hole which is: | an oversize hole will be drilled because cutting will only be done on one of the cutting edges. |
Define drilling | the operation of producing a hole using a tool called a twist drill |

Define reaming | the operation of sizing and producing a smooth round hole from a previously drilled or bored hole with the use of a cutting tool having several cutting edges |
What is the difference between spot-facing and counterboring? | spot facing - smoothing and squaring the surface around a hole to provide a a seat for the head of a cap screw or nut. counterboring - enlarging the top of a previously drilled hole to a given depth to provide a square shoulder for a bot or capscrew. |
State two methods by which the size of a drill press may be determined. | - the distance from the center of the spindle to the column of the machine - the diameter of the largest circular piece that can be drilled in the center |
Compare a sensitive drill press with an upright drilling machine. | sensitive drill press - only one hand feed machanism so the operator can "feel" how the drill is cutting. Generally light, high speed machines. upright drilling machine - larger and heavier. gearbox to provide greater variety of speeds. - 3 methods to advance splindle, hand lever, handwheel and automatically. - table may be raised or lowered - coolant reservoir on some models |
Describe and state the purpose of the following parts of a sensitive drill press: base | provides stability for the machine, and rigid mounting for the column |
Describe and state the purpose of the following parts of a sensitive drill press: column | - table is mounted to column and can be adjusted to any point between the base and the head - drill press head is mounted to top of column |
Describe and state the purpose of the following parts of a sensitive drill press: Drilling head | contains the mechanisms used to revolve the cutting tool and advance it to the workpiece |
Describe and state the purpose of the following parts of a sensitive drill press: Table | used to support the workpiece |
Describe and state the purpose of the following parts of a sensitive drill press: Depth stop | can be set to control the depth that the cutting tool enters the workpiece |
What are the advantages of a radial drilling machine? | - larger and heavier work can be machined - drilling head can be easily raised or lowered - drilling head can be easily moved to any location - more power - head can be swiveled on universal models |
Compare the construction of a radial drilling machine to that of a standard upright drill press, | larger and heavier |
What is the purpose of a drill chuck? | to hold the straight shank cutting tool |
Name four types of drill chucks. | key type keyless type precision keyless jacobs impact keyless |
What is the purpose of a drill sleeve? | used to adapt the cutting tool shank to the machine spindle |
What is the purpose of a drill socket? | used to adapt the drill when the hole in the machine spindle is too small for the taper shank of the drill |
How is a tapered-shank drill removed from a drill press spindle? | with a drill drift |
Name three types of drill vises and state the purpose of each. | drill vise - used to hold round, rectangular, square or odd shaped pieces for any drilling operation angle vise - allows drilling holes at an angle contour vise - special movable jaws that automatically adjust to odd shaped work pieces |
What is the purpose of V-blocks? | to support round parts for drilling |
What is the purpose of step blocks? | used to provide support for the outer end of the strap clamps |
Describe an angle plate and state its purpose. | 90 degree plate used to fasten work for drilling |
What is the advantage of a drill jig? | eliminate the need for laying out hole locations |
Why is it important that work be clamped properly for any machining operation? | so the part does not come loose |
Define the body of a twist drill. | portion of drill between the point and the shank |
Define the web of a twist drill. | Thin partition in the center of the drill that extends the full length of the flutes |
Define the point of a twist drill. | The tip of the drill, consists of the chisel edge, cutting edge, heel and body clearance |
State the purpose of the following parts: Tang | On the end of a tapered shank to prevent the drill from slipping while it is cutting and allows the drill to be removed without the shank being damaged |
State the purpose of the following parts: Flutes | They form the cutting edges, admit cutting fluid and allow the chips to escape from the hole |
State the purpose of the following parts: Margin | it is the narrow raised section on the body of the drill. its purpose is to provide a full size to the dill body and cutting edges |
State the purpose of the following parts: Body clearance | it is the undercut portion of the body between the margin and the flutes. it is made smaller to reduce friction between the drill and the hole. |
What is the purpose of the following drill points and what degree is it ground to: conventional | 118 degrees general purpose drilling |
What is the purpose of the following drill points and what degree is it ground to: long angle | 60 to 90 degrees used for drilling non ferrous materials |
What is the purpose of the following drill points and what degree is it ground to: flat angle | 135 to 150 degrees used to drill hard and tough material |
Why is it necessary to thin the web of a drill? | to reduce pressure and heat while drilling |
List four systems of drill sizes and give the range of each. | Fractional drill sizes Number drill sizes Letter drill sizes Millimeter (metric) drill sizes |
State the purpose of the high-helix drill | for drilling deep holes in aluminum, copper, die cast material and other material where the chips have a tendancy to jam in a hole |
State the purpose of the Core drill | has three or four flutes. used to enlarge cored, drilled or punched holes. |
State the purpose of the Oil hole drill? | has one or two oil holes to force oil to the cutting edge cooling the drill and forcing chips out |
State the purpose of the Straight-fluted drill | for drilling soft materials like brass copper or plastic. straight flutes prevent the drill from drawing itself into the material while cutting |
State the purpose of the gun drill. | used for producing holes as deep as 20ft |
State the purpose of the hard-steel drill | used for drilling hardened steel |
What problems generally result from the use excessive speed and excessive feed? | excessive speed = wear at corners of drill excessive feed = breakdown of chisel point and cutting edges/lips |
Discuss excessive lip clearance and insufficient lip clearance. | excessive clearance = lack of support behind cutting edge insufficient clearance = causes drill to rub behind the cutting edge |
What is the effect of drills with unequal angles on the cutting lips? | one cutting edge works harder than the other causing bellmouth holes and poor tool life |
What is the effect of drills with cutting lips unequal length? | produces oversize holes |
What are the characteristics of a properly ground drill? | both cutting lips should be same length both cutting lips should be same angle lips free from wear or nicks no sign of wear on the margin |
