B 8. What is the purpose of chamfering?

a. to aid assembly for parts inserted by hand b. prevent damage of edges


c. use to clear an interior radius d. all of the above

A 9. Which type of surface is produced in turning operation?

a. cylindrical b. taper c. flat


d. none of the mentioned

B 10. If the diameter of workpiece is 20 mm and the depth of cut is 2 mm during


straight turning, what is the diameter left after the process?
a. 18 mm b. 16 mm c. 22 mm d. 20 mm

B. Discuss briefly the following questions.


1. What do you mean by adjusting the work between centers?

Adjusting the work between centers means that, it is a core way to establish
datum points in the work piece that can be used subsequent machining operations to
ensure that the work remains concentric. It provides more precise precision than
clamping stock directly in the chuck the part will always be perfectly centered.

2. Why should the workpiece be measured before proceeding to face?

The work piece should always be measured before you proceed in facing to
able to produce a precise measurement that required in your work piece. If it is not
followed it will cause errors especially in the measurement and it will delay your
wok.

3. Give at least two reasons why a work piece is faced

The two reasons why workpiece is faced because first to provide a true, flat
square with the axis of the work pieces. And to cut the workpieces to the required
length.

4. What occurs if the tool is set below the center? If set too far above the center? What is
the best way of determining when the tool is set right as regards the center?

If the tool is set below the center it will cause chatter and poor surface
finishing result. Because the relative angle between the tool and workpiece has too
much rake. The accuracy will be adversely affected due to altered cutting geometry.
You have rectilinear motion of the tool and rotary motion of the workpiece. The best
way to determine if your tool is set right as regards to the center is to place 0.005
above the center, this will protect the tool from tensile that would easily fracture the
tip. If the work piece is small diameter placed it directly.

5. Sometimes when turning shoulders it is convenient to neck the work. How is this
done?
When turning shoulders is convenient to neck the work it is done by the end
of the thread to permit full travel of the nut up to a shoulder or at the edge of a
shoulder to ensure a proper fit mating parts.

a) bolts b) plates c) both bolts and plates d) none of the mentioned

B 6. It is the cutting operation that uses a single-point cutting tool to produce conical
or cylindrical surfaces by enlarging an existing opening in a workpiece.

a) drilling b) boring c) facing d) grooving


A 7. Correct order of operations performed during machining project
a) drilling, boring, tapping, facing
b) boring, facing, drilling, tapping
c) facing, drilling, boring, tapping
d) tapping, facing, drilling, boring

A 8. What is the process that ensures that the drill will start at the center of work?
a) spotting b) boring c) facing d) grooving

B 9. It is not possible to drill a hole successfully or safely without using a ____ first.
a) twist drill b) center drill c) prick punch d) scriber

B 10. Boring can also be called as ______________


. a) internal drilling b) internal turning c) internal shaping d) internal threading

B. Discuss briefly the following questions:

1. Describe the importance of drilling operation in lathe?


The importance of drilling operation in lathe is that the time and effort saved
by using the lathe for drilling operations instead of changing the work to another
machine, although lathe is not a drilling machine. Holes will need to be drilled using
the lathe before other internal operations can be completed, such as boring, reaming,
and tapping.

2. Explain the difference between drilling in lathe and in drilling machine?

The difference between drilling in lathe and drilling machine is that in lathe
machine several operations you can perform like facing, turning, grooving, knurling,
and threading with the use of single point cutting tool. While in drilling machine
you can perform only few operations like for making holes in workpiece with the
use of drill bit tools.

3. What will happen if center drill is not used before starting a drill?

If the center drill is not used before starting a drill your measurement for the
center of your workpiece will not be accurate. Attempting to drill with traditional bit
without countersinking first will lead to the drill bit slipping straight away. So that it
is not possible to drill a hole successfully or safe without using a center drill first.

4. What is the used of coolant in lathe drilling operations?

Coolant is used in lathe drilling operations by reducing and removing the heat
build up in the cutting zone and workpiece. And to prevent jamming that would
blunt the drill quickly. It also provides lubrication to reduce friction between the
tool and removal of the chips.

5. Is the spindle speed varies in drilling on the lathe? How?

Yes the spindle speed varies in drilling on the lathe because it is controlled by
varying the geometry of the drive train. It can be adjusted in position along the ways
to accommodate different length work pieces. The tailstock can be used to support
the end of the workpiece with a center, or to hold for drilling, reaming, threading, or
cutting tapers.
