Excessive speed will cause wear at outer corners of drill. This permits fewer regrinds of drill due to amount of stock to be removed in reconditioning. Discoloration is warning sign of excess speed.
Copyright The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
40-53
Excessive clearance results in lack of support behind cutting edge with quick dulling and poor tool life. Despite initial free cutting action. Clearance angle behind cutting lip for general purposes is 8 to 12.
Copyright The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
40-54
Excessive feed sets up abnormal end thrust, which causes breakdown of chisel point and cutting lips. Failure induced by this cause will be broken or split drill.
Copyright The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
40-55
Insufficient clearance causes the drill to rub behind the cutting edge. It will make the drill work hard, generate heat, and increase end thrust. This results in poor holes and drill breakage.

The web is the tapered central portion of the body that joins the lands.

Cutting lips with unequal angles will cause one cutting edge to work harder than the other. This causes torsion strain, bellmouth holes, rapid dulling, and poor tool life.

40-58
Cutting lips unequal in length cause chisel point to be off center axis and will drill holes oversize by approximately twice the amount of eccentricity.

40-59
Loading and galling is caused by poor chip removal with insufficient dissipation of heat so that material anneals itself to the cutting edge and flute. This condition frequently results from using wrong drills for the job or inadequate cutting fluid application.

More Factors

Formula (Inch)
CS (feet per minute) x12 r / min D(drill circumfere nce in inches)
where CS = recommended cutting speed in feet per minute for the material being drilled D = diameter of drill being used Revolution per minute = number of revolutions of the drill necessary to attain proper cutting speed for metal being machined.
41-74
Simplified Formula
Since not all machines can be set to exact calculated speed, pi () divided into 12 to simplify formula
CS x 4 r / min D
Example: Calculate r/min required to drill a in hole in cast iron (CS 80) with a high-speed steel drill.
41-75
Feed
Distance drill advances into work for each revolution May be expressed in decimals, fractions of an inch, or millimeters Three factors govern rate of feed
Diameter of drill Material of workpiece Condition of drilling machine

Drill Feeds
General purpose Work Drill Size in. 18 to to mm 3 to 6 6 to 13 25 to 38 Feed per Revolution in. .002 to .004 .004 to .007 mm 0.05 to 0.1 0.1 to 0.18

.015 to .025
0.38 to 0.63
41-77
Drill Feeds
General rule: feed rate increases as drill size increases
Too coarse chip cutting edges Too light chattering noise, dulls cutting edge
Hard steels or alloys use slower feed Softer metals drilled with faster feed Blue steel chips indicate too much heat at cutting edge
Dull cutting edge or too high speed
41-78
Cutting Fluids
Provide both cooling and lubrication Properties of an effective liquid in dissipating heat
Able to absorb heat rapidly Have good resistance to evaporation Have high thermal conductivity
Oil: good lubricant, poor coolant Water: best coolant, no lubricating value (promotes rust)

43-113
Reamer Care
1. Never turn reamer backward; ruin edges 2. Always store reamers in separate containers to prevent cutting edges from being nicked 3. Never roll or drop reamers on metal surfaces 4. When not in use, reamer should be oiled 5. Fine, free-cutting grinding wheel should be used for resharpening reamers
43-114
Reaming Allowances
Amount of material left in hole for reaming operation depends on number of factors
Type of machining operation prior to reaming Hole punched, rough-drilled, bored
General rules for amount of material to leave in hole for machine reaming
Holes up to .500 in. diameter, allow .015 in. Holes over .500 in. diameter, allow .030 in.
43-115
Reaming Speeds
Factors for determining most efficient speed
Type of material being reamed Rigidity of setup Tolerance and finish required in hole
Generally reaming speed 1/2 to 2/3 speed used for drilling same material High speed used when setup rigid Lower speed used when setup less rigid Coolants improve surface finish and allow speed
43-116
Reaming Feeds
Feed used for reaming usually two to three times greater than that used for drilling Rate varies with material reamed Generally .001 to .004 in. per flute per rev Feed too low: glazing, excessive reamer wear, chatter Feed too fast: reduce hole accuracy, poor surface finish Exception: tapered holes need light feed
43-117
Reaming Hints
1. Examine reamer and remove all burrs from cutting edges with hone 2. Cutting fluid should be used in reaming operation to improve hole finish and prolong life of reamer 3. Helical-fluted reamers should always be used when long holes and those with keyways or oil grooves are reamed
43-118
5. Straight-fluted reamers generally used when extreme accuracy required 6. Use roughing reamer first and then finishing reamer to obtain hole accuracy and good surface finish 7. Never turn reamer backwards 8. Never attempt to start reamer on uneven surface 9. Select reamer with incremental cut to avoid chatter 10. Always use stub center in drill press spindle to keep reamer aligned
