Cutting Speed (V): It is the speed at which the metal is removed by the cutting tool from the
work piece. In case of lathe machine cutting speed is the peripheral speed of the work past the
cutting tool. It is expressed in meter/min. or mm/min. Cutting speed (V) = π DN/60 × 1000
mm/min, where, D = diameter of the work piece (mm), N = rpm of the work
Feed (f): It is the relative motion of tool in one revolution of work piece. It is expressed in
mm/rev.
Depth of Cut (t): It is the total amount of metal removed per pass of the cutting tool. It is
expressed in mm. It can vary and depending upon the type of tool and work material.
Mathematically, it is half of difference of diameters. Depth of cut (t) = D-d/2 mm

Title: Demonstration of drilling machine
Aim: To study construction of radial drilling machine, Tool holding devices, Concept of
speed, feed and depth of cut
Apparatus: Drilling Machine
Objectives: Understand construction of radial drilling machine, Tool holding devices,
Concept of speed, feed and depth of cut.
Theory:
Drilling machine is one of the most important machine tools in a workshop. It was designed
to produce a cylindrical hole of required diameter and depth on metal work pieces. Though
holes can be made by different machine tools in a shop, drilling machine is designed
specifically to perform the operation of drilling and similar operations. Drilling can be done
easily at a low cost in a shorter period of time in a drilling machine. Drilling can be called as
the operation of producing a cylindrical hole of required diameter and depth by removing metal
by the rotating edges of a drill. The cutting tool known as drill is fitted into the spindle of the
drilling machine. A mark of indentation is made at the required location with a centre punch.
The rotating drill is pressed at the location and is fed into the work. The hole can be made up
to a required depth.
Radial drilling machine:
Radial drilling machines (often called radial-arm drill presses) are used to drill holes in very
large work pieces that are difficult to position manually under the spindle of a standard drill
press. The spindle on a radial drilling machine can be positioned anywhere within a certain
radius of the column, depending on the size of the machine. The drilling head slides along the
radial arm, thus allowing drilling head adjustment to the required distance from the column.
Power is used to raise or lower the arm on the column by means of a lead screw.
The radial arm pivots around the column to position the drill horizontally. The spindle can be
operated by power feed or manually.
There are usually two methods of manual feed on radial-arm drill presses. One method uses a
hand feed lever on the drilling head. Alternatively, a hand wheel located on the underside of
Vision: To Empower Engineering Aspirants with Knowledge, Skills & Moral Values. 24
MMCOE, Dept. of Engg. Sciences Workshop Practice
the drilling head can be engaged to provide mechanical advantage and a fine feed for manual
drilling operations. A large work piece can be fastened to the table or base or set on the shop
floor beside the machine. When the work piece has been secured, the spindle can be positioned
above the location of the hole. Because these drill presses are meant for heavy work they
always have geared heads, power feed and coolant pumps.
1. Radial Arm: In radial drilling machine, the radial arm holds and supports the drill head
assembly and can be moved around on the extent of its length.
2. Column: Column is the part of the radial arm drill press which holds the radial arm. It fixes
itself and the radial arm to the base and allows seamless movement of the arm.
3. Elevating Screw: Elevating screw is a piece of metal with screw-like circular thread. It
helps in adjusting the vertical height of the radial arm by raising or lowering it.
4. On/Off Button: This button has a simple function of activating or deactivating the drill
press.
5. Arm Clamp: Arm Clamp provides support and holds both, the column and the radial arm.
6. Table: Table is the part of the machine placed just below the radial arm. It is where the
work pieces are fixed and worked on. This component and be raised, lowered or rotated in
order to facilitate the drilling process.
7. Base: This part is fixed to the ground and is directly attached to the table and the column.
This way it provides support to the whole mechanism.
8. Spindle: This part is attached at the mouth of the radial arm. It is the rotating part of the
drill press and holds the drill head.
9. Drill Head: Drill head is the part of the drill press that penetrates through the material or
work piece. It is attached to the radial arm by the spindle.
Cutting Speed
Speed in general refers to the distance a point travels in a particular period of time. The cutting
speed in a drilling operation refers to the peripheral speed of a point on the cutting edge of the
drill. It is usually expressed in meters per minute. The cutting speed (v) may be calculated as

Conclusion:
Radial drill machine is an efficient and easy-to-use machine. There are a number of advantages
of using the radial arm drill press. One of these advantages is that radial is free to move around
during drill. This flexible movement provides a large amount of area that it can cover which
is only dependent on the length of the arm. Another advantage is the high rate of production
that it allows since the arm can actually swivel out of the working area allowing cranes and
derricks to quickly place work pieces on the table.

This cutting takes place due to plastic deformation of metal by the cutting tool. Milling
machine can also hold more than one cutter at a time. The holding device is supported by
mechanism that can offer a selective portion of the work piece to milling cutter for its
processing. Indexing is one of the examples of this type of processing.
Column and Knee Type Milling Machine
Column and Knee Type Milling Machine Main shape of column knee type of milling machine
is shown in Figure. This milling machine consists of a base having different control
mechanisms housed there in. The base consists of a vertical column at one of its end. There is
one more base above the main base and attached to the column that serves as worktable
equipped with different attachments to hold the work piece. This base having worktable is
identified as “knee” of the milling machine. At the top of the column and knee type milling
machines are classified according to the various methods of supplying power to the table,
different movements of the table and different axis of rotation of the main spindle.
Generally, columns and knee type milling machine is considered as typical milling machine.
Principal parts of a typical milling machine are described as below.

6. Overhanging Arm: Overhanging arm is mounted on the column and serves a bearing
support for the arbor. This arm is adjustable so that the bearing support may be provided near
to the milling cutter. There can be more than one bearing supports to the arbor. Arbor it holds
rotating milling cutters rigidly and mounted on the spindle. Sometimes arbor is supported at
maximum distance from support of overhanging arm like a cantilever, it is called stub arbor.
7. Locking provisions: are provided in the arbor assembly to ensure its reliability.
8. Front Brace Milling: -Front base is used to adjust the relative position of knee and
overhanging arm. It is also an extra support fixed between the knee and overhanging arm for
rigidity.
9. Spindle: is projected from the column face and provided with a tapered hole to
accommodate the arbor. Performance of a milling machine depends on the accuracy, strength
and rigidity of the spindle. Spindle also transfer the motive power to arbor through belt or gear
from column.
INDEXING:
Indexing is the operation of dividing the periphery of a work piece into any number of equal
parts. For example if we want to make a hexagonal bolt. Head of the bolt is given hexagonal
shape. We do indexing to divide circular work piece into six equal parts and then all the six
parts are milled to an identical flat surface. If we want to cut “n‟ number of teeth in a gear
blank. The circumference of gear blank is divided into “n” number of equal parts and teeth are
made by milling operation one by one. The main component used in indexing operation is

universal dividing head. Universal Dividing Head It is most popular and common type of
indexing arrangement. As indicated by its name “universal”, it can be used to do all types of
indexing on a milling machine. Universal dividing head can set the work piece in vertical,
horizontal, or in inclined position relative to the worktable in addition to working principle is
explained below with the help of illustrated. The worm gear has 40 teeth and the worm has
Simple thread. Crank is directly attached with the worm. If we revolve crank by 40 revolutions
the spindle attached with worm gear will revolve by only one revolution and one complete
turn of the crank will revolve the spindle only by 1/40th revolution (turn). In order to turn the
crank precisely a fraction of a revolution, an indexing plate is used. An indexing plate is like
a circular disc having concentric rings of different number of equally spaced holes. Normally
indexing plate is kept stationary by a lock pin. A spring loaded pin is fixed to the Gear cutting

In Lathe Machine this section is known as live center Do you know that? The headstock work
is to match the center and helps to grip the workpiece.
Tailstock:
Tailstock is known as dead center. It also provides gripping to the work piece.
Work Table:
Nowadays In the new grinding machine, the headstock and tailstock are replaced with work
tables. A worktable is like a magnetic chuck that holds the workpiece.

Wheel Head:
In this section, the abrasive wheels which are our tool for operation are placed and this is
moved vertically up and down. With the use of a Feed hand, we can adjust the wheel head.
Moving this wheel head down so that the grinding wheel can touch the workpiece. The wheel
head consists of a grinding wheel and driving motor.
There are four commonly used abrasive materials for the surface of the grinding wheels are
Aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, cubic boron nitride (CBN), and diamond.
Cross feed:
Cross feed is also an important parts of this machine used for moving up and down or left and
right of Wheel head and work table and so on.
Traversing Wheel:
There are three types of Traversing wheel.
Hand Traversing Wheel: This wheel is used to move the table in the horizontal direction
either left or right according to the tool and the workpiece.
Cross Side: It is used to move the worktable in forwarding and backward directions and
Vertical Feed Hand Wheel: The vertical feed hand traversing wheel is used to move the
wheel head in the vertically upward and downward direction.

4. Keep combustible and flammable substances away from the machine. Do not place
flammable (such as paint thinner and gasoline) around the machine. Moreover, do not
use a spray around the machine.
5. The operator shall not open the NC cabinet door. There are high voltages, high
voltages, hence shock hazards, inside the cabinet.
6. The operator shall not remove the slide doors. There are objects rotating or moving at
high speed inside guards. If it is removed, the following may occur:
a) Danger of contacting with the objects rotating or moving at high speed.
b) Chance of broken cutter or workpiece flying.
c) Chance of cutting chips flying.
d) Chance of coolant spattering out of the machine.
7. Do not get close to moving components such as table or turret when the front door is
open.
Before starting the machine, check its condition to ensure safe operations.
1. Press the emergency stop button to see if the machine stops immediately.
2. Make sure that the Z-axis brake works when it should. Before pressing the emergency
stop button, read the position of the Z-axis. Press and release the stop button, and read
the position of the Z-axis. Z-axis deviation between before and after the emergency
stop button is presses shall be 0.1mm or less.
3. Make sure that the levelling bolt is not off mount.
4. Make sure that the side doors latches are tight.
5. Make sure that the cutter is secured on the arbor so that normal machining is possible.
The cutter shall not be worn out or broken out.
6. A defective fixture can cause a workpiece to come off accidentally. Make sure that the
fixture is intact.
7. If the fixture is equipped with a hydraulic or pneumatic unit, make sure the pressure is
normal. If the pressure is too low, the fixture cannot clamp a workpiece firmly, letting
it come off accidentally. If the pressure is too high, the hydraulic or pneumatic unit
may break down, hampering the functioning of the fixture.
8. Accumulation of metal chips disables a normal operation of the machine. Make sure
that the machine is free of such metal chip.
