2 - Question

Operation of finishing previously drilled hole in order to bring it to accurate size and have good surface finish is known as
a) Drilling
b) Reaming
c) Boring
d) Counter boring
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: Reaming is a finishing operation of drilled hole. It is done to improve surface finish of drilled hole.



3 - Question

Process of enlarging the hole size and enhancing its surface finish is known as
a) Drilling
b) Reaming
c) Boring
d) Counter boring
View Answer Answer: c
Explanation: Once the hole is drilled by using drilling operation, later the diameter of hole can be increased by using boring operation. advertisement



4 - Question

Process of enlarging only a small part of hole is also known as
a) Drilling
b) Reaming
c) Boring
d) Counter boring
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: Once the hole is drilled by using drilling operation, later the diameter of some part of hole can be increased by using counter boring operation.



5 - Question

Operation of enlarging the end of the hole to give conical shape at end is known as
a) Drilling
b) Reaming
c) Boring
d) Counter sinking
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: Once the hole is drilled by using drilling operation, later the ends of hole can be machined into conical shape for proper adjustment of washer or other machine parts by using Counter sinking operation.



6 - Question

Operation used to form internal threads is known as
a) Drilling
b) Reaming
c) Boring
d) Tapping
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: Tapping is the process of forming internal threads by means of tool called tap.

a) 37.2
b) 45.3
c) 87.1
d) 13.3
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: X = (D/2)/ (tan (semi point angle)).



10 - Question

If 20mm hole is needed to be drilled using a drill having point angle of 15 degrees. Value of compulsory approach in mm is
a) 37.2
b) 45.3
c) 75.95
d) 13.3
View Answer Answer: c
Explanation: X = (D/2)/ (tan (semi point angle)). Semi point angle = point angle/2.
