This complete guide sheds light on several aspects of drilling machines<\/a>. The likes of which include their types, application and usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Drilling Machines available in India<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Different types of drilling machines are available in the Indian market. They are categorised based on their use. Here is a list of all the types of Drilling Machines available in India in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portable Drilling Machine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sensitive Drilling Machine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Also called Bench drilling machines, they are best compatible with light-duty work requiring high drilling speed. They come with a base, column, table and spindle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upright Drilling Machine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

They are very similar to Bench drilling machines. With a box-type column rigid body, they are preferred for heavy-duty work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gang Drilling Machine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This type of drilling machine consists of 4 to 6 drill heads mounted side by side on a long table. Different spindle tools can be used for different operations. They are generally used for jobs which require multiple operations in succession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Radial Drilling Machine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This type of drilling machine has a radial arm column which helps in drilling large holes by allowing the arm to move vertically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to choose the best drilling machine?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Choosing a drilling machine that best suits your needs is not difficult. Listed below are the ideal use cases to remember while buying drilling machines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Low Volume: Portable Drilling Machines and Sensitive Drilling Machines<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Heavy Duty: Radial Drilling Machines and Upright Drilling Machines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. High Volume: Gang Drilling Machines<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Safety measures you should take while using drill machines.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Always wear safety clothing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Use eye protection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Use ear muffs while using handheld electric drills.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Using a respirator while drilling on brick or concrete surfaces is advised.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      How to use drill machine safely?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Choosing the drill bit wisely.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      You should always accustom yourself to the basics of operation first. A drill bit made of the wrong material may cause damage to the surface or the job you are working on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Handling the chord safely.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      You should always avoid picking up the drilling machine by its chord. You should also avoid using a chain of extension chords to increase the working length of the machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Prefer drilling pilot holes before actually drilling.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Mark your job with a cross and drill a pilot hole with a smaller drill bit. Then finish the job with a larger drill bit for the final hole size. This will help you prevent your job from slipping and reduce the chance of splitting the job into two pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Always drill with stable hands to maintain steady pressure.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      A drilling machine never requires you to force it into the surface while drilling. If it is compelling you to apply force while drilling, you are probably using the wrong-sized drill bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Don’t try to force the jammed bit through<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      It is quite common for a bit to get jammed in the chuck while drilling. Do not try to force it out by running the drill. Always unplug the machine and remove the chuck from the machine. Now try separating the drill bit from the chuck using manual tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Keep a check on overheating drill bits.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Whenever drilling through hard materials, the drill bit undergoes an immense amount of friction. It tends to melt into the surface after a point. For the safety of yourself and the job, you should always start drilling slowly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Adjust the clutch to apply the right amount of torque.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Increasing and decreasing the torque of the drilling machine will help you achieve the right speed to penetrate the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
