STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE
DRILLING MACHINE
CONTROL PLAN:
➢ Know the location of start and stop switches or buttons and keep the drill and other
materials.
➢ Use only properly sharpened drill bits, sockets and chucks in good condition. Remove dull
drill bits, battered tangs, or sockets from service.
➢ Use brushes or other tools to properly remove chips.
➢ Do not attempt to oil the machine or make adjustments to the work while the drill press is
in motion.
➢ Do not insert a drill chuck key into the chuck until the power is shut off and the machine
has come to a complete stop.
➢ All belts and pulleys must be guarded; if frayed belts or pulleys are observed, the drill
press must be taken out of service and the belts or pulleys must be replaced.
➢ All stock must be properly secured with a vise or clamps prior to a machining process.
➢ If the stock slips in the vise or clamp, the operator must not attempt to hold the work with
his/her hand or try to tighten the vise/clamp while the machine is in motion. Shutdown the
power to the machine prior to re-tightening the loose stock.
➢ Use the correct speed and drill for the type of stock being machined.
➢ The drill bit should be mounted the full depth and in the center of the chuck.
➢ Position the table and adjust the feed stroke eliminating the possibility of the bit striking
the table.
➢ Feed the bit smoothly into the work. If the hole being drilled is deep, withdraw the bit
frequently to remove shaving on the bit.
➢ Never attempt to remove a broken drill with a center punch or hammer.
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES:
➢ The given work piece is first fitted to get required length, breadth and thickness wet chalk
is applied on four sides and with the scriber lines are drawn to get centre hole at required
location.
➢ The centers are punched with a Punch and hammer.
➢ The work piece is fixed firmly in the vice of the Drilling Machine
➢ 3/8” drill bit is fixed firmly in the chuck and drilling is performed giving uniform depths.
➢ The drill bit is removed from the drill chuck and is replaced by a reamer.
➢ The reaming operation is performed on the hole which has been previously drilled.
➢ The work is removed from the vice for performing tapping operation.
➢ The job is fixed firmly in a bench vice.
➢ Tap is fixed in the tap handle and pressure applied on the taps to obtain internal thread.

piece is secure.
11. Ensure you have selected correct speed and rate.
12. Ensure you have set the correct depth of cut.
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES:
1. The given raw material rectangular block is measured. The machining allowances are
noted. Then the job is coated with white chalk for marking purpose.
2. The job is position in the marking table. The vernier height gauge is set to the correct
dimensions as per the part drawing dimensions
3. After, the height -- mm is corrected in the vernier height gauge; the vernier scriber is
marked in the face sides of the rectangular block.
4. To identify the dimensions of the job, the marking lines are punched
5. The work piece is placed in the shaping machine work holding device in correct
position. Tool is held in the head in suitable position.
6. The stroke length and initial cutting position are corrected by adjusting the ram and
table manually
7. The tool is held in the tool post in vertical position
8. Now, the machine is switched ON. The tool moves over the work, the materials is
removed from the work by the tool cutting force.
9. By giving cross-feed movement to the table, the total length of work is machined,
after completion of one cut, the depth of cut is adjusted in the tool head. Then the next
cut is taken.
10. By repeating the above same procedure, the other faces are machined to the required
dimensions
