 Work holding devices in drilling

In general purpose drilling machine

like column and radial arm type, the
workpiece is generally mounted
by directly clamping on the drilling
machine bed particularly when the job
is heavy and/or of odd shape and size.
in a vice which is clamped on the
bed.
in a suitable jig clamped on the bed.
 Angle plate

L-shaped piece of cast iron or hardened steel

machined to accurate 90º may be bolted or clamped
to table
 Drill jigs

 It is a work holding device that holds, supports and locates the

workpiece and guides the cutting tool for a specific operation.

 Drill jigs are devices designed for production drilling jobs. The

workplaces are clamped into the jig so that the holes will be
drilled in the same location on each piece. The jig may guide the
drill through a steel bushing to locate the holes accurately.
 Used in production for drilling holes in large number of identical

parts

 Used to fasten work to table or angle plate for drilling

 Usually supported at end by step block and bolted to table by T-bolt that fits
into table T-slot
 Tool holding devices in drilling

• A self-centering, three-jaw drill chuck is used to hold small drilling

tools with straight shanks.
• Quick-change chucks for tapered-shank tools.

 Drill sleeves and drill socket
 Taper shank tools, of which the shank is sufficiently large, are directly fitted in
the tapered hole of the spindle nose.
 Those taper shank tools, of which the shank is too small to fit the taper hole of
the spindle are held in a socket.
 The shank of this socket has a standard taper to fit the taper hole in a spindle.
 Still smaller taper shank drills are first fitted with a sleeve, which fits into the
socket and the complete assembly in the spindle.

Cutting Parameters in Drilling
 Cutting conditions

• Cutting Speed
• Feed: It is the distance a drill moves, parallel to its axis into the
work in each revolution of the spindle (mm/rev)
• Feed rate: If the total distance moved by the drill into the work,
parallel to its axis, in one minute is considered, it can be expressed
as feed per minute
• Depth of cut: In drilling operation the depth of cut is measured at
right angles to the axis of the drill i.e. the direction of feed and is
numerically equal to one-half of the diameter of the drill.
 Cutting conditions

The cutting parameters in drilling depends on:

o Material to be cut
o Material of tool
o Depth of drilling
o Drill size
o Type of finish required
o Type of coolant used
o Capacity of machine
o Tool life
