What is the difference between Drilling and Boring?

Drilling is the process of perforating a solid material surface using a drill bit to create a
cavity. The surface of the drilling is rough, and the edges of the entrance may be
rugged.

Boring is the process of cutting the internal surfaces of an existing hole, where the
goal may be enlarging the hole or to achieve higher tolerance and finish in the product.

It can be done on a milling machine, lathe, or machining center, but there are also machines designed
specifically for drilling called drill presses. Boring can be done only on drilling machine

Drilling requires a cutting tool called a drill bit. Boring is accomplished using a heavy, stiff boring bar that has
a single-point cutting tool at the end.
