Solution :
The correct sequence of machining operations to be performed to finish a large diameter through-hole is drilling, boring, reaming.
Drilling :
- Drilling is an operation to produce a cylindrical hole in a workpiece.
- The tool used in called “drill bit”.
Boring :
- Boring is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled by means of a single-point cutting tool.
- The single-point cutting tool for boring operation is the Boring cutter.
- The boring process can be executed on various machine tools, including lathes (turning centers) or milling machines.
Reamer :
- A reamer is a multipoint cutting tool used for enlarging by finishing previously drilled holes to accurate sizes.
- For reaming with a hand or a machine reamer, the hole drilled should be smaller than the reamer size.
