  1. Basic Hole Making

  2. Machine Planning for Hole Operations • Not all holes are equal! • Some holes are rough holes • Some holes require tight tolerances • Some holes are compound features • Consider hole attributes when selecting hole making operations

  3. Attribute 1: Basic Shape of Hole • “Simple” thru hole • “Simple” blind hole • Sub-features • Threads • Counterbore • Countersink • Spotface

  4. Attribute 2: Size of Hole • Diameter • “Standard” • “Non-standard” • Very Large • Very Small

  5. Attribute 3: Tolerances of Hole • Dimensional Tolerances • X – Y Location • Diameter • Geometric Tolerances • Perpendicularity/Angularity • Circularity/Cylindricity • Straightness • Other • Surface Finish

  6. Hole Making Operations

  7. Center Drilling • Mark the X – Y location of the desired hole • Prevents twist drill “wander” • Especially helpful when: • Workpiece is not flat • Holes are not perpendicular to the part surface • Close positional tolerances are required

  8. Drilling • Twist drill is most common drilling tool • Creates or enlarges non-precision holes • Drilling is a roughing operation • May produce coarse, helical feed marks • Poor dimensional accuracy • Creates small burrs on entry, coarse burrs on exit

  9. Drilling (Cont.) • Twist drills always follow existing holes • Twist drills require workpiece material on all sides of the hole • Twist drills only cut on the bottom of the tool • Cutting forces are greatest at “break through”

  10. Drilling Tools • Four “series” of twist drills • Fractional - 1/64” - 4” in 1/64 steps • Letter - A (.234”) to Z (.413”) • Number - #1 (.228”) to #97 (.0059”) • Metric - .5 to 80mm • Common Twist Drill Wear Patterns: • Burnt corners - spindle RPM too high • Broken edges/cracks - Feed too high

  11. Common Drilling Techniques(with twist drills) • Center Drill all holes requiring accurate X – Y location • Peck Drill deep holes (more than 3X drill diameter) • Step Drill (drill pilot hole) large holes • Select pilot hole slightly larger than the drill web • Do not select pilot hole that is excessively large

  12. Boring • Boring is a single point cutting operation • Produces a precise internal cylindrical surface • Enlarges and straightens existing holes • May be used to modify existing hole location and orientation

  13. Boring (Cont.) • Produces close tolerance holes • Good surface finish is possible • Good roundness • Accurate diameters which may have non-standard diameters

  14. Reaming • Uses a multi-fluted cutting tool called a Reamer • Existing hole is enlarged and accurately sized • Requires an appropriate size hole in the workpiece prior to reaming • Refer to stock allowance charts

  15. Reaming (Cont.) • Produces close tolerance holes • Good surface finish • Good roundness • Accurate Diameters • Does not modify existing hole location or orientation • A reamer follows an existing hole

  16. Tapping • Tap produces uniform, internal helical threads. • Requires an appropriate size hole in the workpiece prior to being tapped • Refer to “tap drill” reference charts • Lubrication is essential during tapping • Produces small chips • Use pecking motion to break chips

  17. Counter Bore • A counter bore is a cylindrical enlargement of a top of an existing hole

  18. Spot Face • A spot face is the smoothing and squaring of surface around the top of an existing hole.

  19. Countersink • A countersink is a conical enlargement of a top of an existing hole.
