FABRICATION OF AUTOMATIC DRILLING AND

REAMING ATTACHMENT
INTRODUCTION;
The drilling machine is a metal cutting machine tool designed to drill metal
using drilling tool. Reaming is a process which slightly enlarges a pre-existing
hole to a tightly toleranced diameter using reamer tool. A reamer is similar to a
mill bit in that it has several cutting edges arranged around a central shaft,
The drilling machine is exclusively intended for mass production and
they represent fasten and more efficient way to cut a metal.

There are numerous types of cutting machines in Engineering field,

which are used to fulfill the requirements. We are interested to introduce the
automatic operation of drilling and reaming operation..

NEED FOR AUTOMATION

Nowadays almost all the manufacturing process is being atomized in
order to deliver the products at a faster rate. The manufacturing operation is
being atomized for the following reasons.

To achieve mass production

To reduce man power
To increase the efficiency of the plant

 To reduce the work load

To reduce the production cost
To reduce the production time
To reduce the material handling
To reduce the fatigue of workers
To achieve good product quality
Less Maintenance

SYNOPSIS;
The main aim of this project is to acquire practical Knowledge in the
field of automation . In this project FABRICATION OF AUTOMATIC
DRILLING AND REAMING ATTACHMENT the job is feeded, drilled
and reamed automatically.

Initially the job is loaded manually. The job , drilling, reaming feed
movements done by the separate DC motors through the lead screw and nut
mechanism .These motors are controlled by the microcontroller .

These movements are stopped at particular position using magnetic

sensors which sends the signal to the input of microcontroller .The entire

operation is done automatically by using microcontroller. The components are

manufactured with lesser time and hence the production rates are increased.

ADVANTAGES;
There is no need of giving feed during every cut due to the presence of
weight.
It does not have any Prime mover, like electric motor related to the unit.
Simple in construction.
It is a compact one
Less Maintenance
