Radial Drilling Machine Types and InformationA Story by Elizabeth ClarkRadial Drilling MachineWhen it
comes to mechanical machining, radial drilling machine is used for all
functions such as drilling, counter boring, spot facing, lapping, screwing
reaming, tapping and boring. Radial drilling machines work well with a variety
of material such as cast iron, steel, plastic etc. Drilling machines hold a
certain diameter of drill (called a chuck) rotates at a specified rpm
(revolutions per minute) allowing the drill to start a hole. Radial
drills are of three types. With the plain radial drill, the drill spindle is
always vertical, and may not swing over any point of the work. The spindle in
the half-universal drill may be swung over any point of the work and it may
swing in one plane at any angle to the vertical up to complete reversal of the
direction of the drill. And the spindle in the full-universal drill can be
swung in any plane at any angle to the vertical. The
specialty of radial drilling machine is that they are of robust construction
and are designed for heavy duty drilling. The machines need to have all cast
parts of fine close grained grey iron casting machined to close tolerance. They
have to be subject to rigid inspection at all stages of assembly to ensure
accuracy. Superior machines are known for their Grade 1 accuracy. Radial
drilling machines having oil bath gearbox and hardened gears tend to have a
very long life. The rotation and easy sliding of gears in bearings gives very
high reliability. Gears are internally splined and shafts are externally
splined. The radial
drilling machines can have 32 mm 125 mm drilling capacity; mt-4 spindle nose;
head stock is bored on toss imported boring machine; double column grinded by
wmw german-make cylindrical grinders; and has 2425 standard accuracy. The smt
40/1000 dc radial drilling machines are useful in almost every tool room as
well as maintenance purpose. Our radial
drilling machines have heavy-duty high precision all-geared drill head with
forged steel gears and toughened spindle. Face milling
and keyway milling operations is made easy thanks to the automatic vertical movement of arms as well
as horizontal automatic movement of main spindle head. Accurate inclined
drilling is made possible with arm lilting at 360 degrees. A lot of
time is expended due to the changing of the position of work on a machine. In a
radial drill machine, the drill table is placed on a solid foundation for
holding very heavy work. When a piece of work is secured on the drill table,
the drill spindle may be placed over any part of the work without moving the
latter. © 2017 Elizabeth ClarkAuthor's Note
