Study Notes

Power Tools

Operate entirely or partially by power, such as electricity or compressed air, to complete work easier, faster, or more accurately
Examples: electric drills, grinders, and air hammers

Hand Grinders

Used to remove material from a workpiece in the field, by abrasive means
Tasks:
- Wire brushing rust and paint
- Grinding surfaces flat
- Removing welding or other protrusions
- Buffing or polishing to finish a workpiece

Safety Check

Wear appropriate PPE when using a grinder, including:
- Safety glasses with side shields and a face shield
- Respiratory protection
- Hearing protection
Clear the area nearby of combustibles
May require a hot-work permit, depending on the job location
Ensure long hair is tied back and concealed, and long sleeves are rolled up
Jewelry should not be worn while grinding
Never remove the guard from a power grinder
Select grinding wheels for the RPM of the grinder in use
Ensure the wheel is not in contact with the work when starting the grinder

Fixed Grinders

Bench and floor mounted grinders used for a wide variety of jobs
Examples: sharpening tools, shaping workpieces, and removing material
Consist of a double-ended sealed motor with a threaded mounting shaft for grinding wheels
Wheel guards are attached to the motor and surround most of the wheel
Movable safety glass shield covers the opening in the guard for further protection
Notched metal plate attached in front of each wheel supports the work during grinding
Gap between the wheel and plate should be as small as possible

Safety Check

Wear a full-face shield for protection from flying grinding particles
Dip the workpiece in water frequently to prevent overheating and operator burns
Examine wheels closely prior to each use
Chip or nicked wheels should be dressed with a dressing tool
Wheels with cracks should be discarded immediately
Use the whole face of the wheel when grinding
Move the workpiece back and forth slowly across the wheel

Abrasive Wheels

Use hard abrasive particles to remove or finish materials
Classified and marked using six categories:
- Abrasive type
- Grain size
- Grade
- Structure
- Bond type
- Manufacturer's record
Two common abrasive types: aluminum oxide and silicon carbide
Grain sizes range from coarse to very fine
Grade refers to the grit bond strength
Structure refers to the range of grains from dense to open type
Bond type identifies the method used to hold the grains together

Wheel Speed

Manufacturers list the maximum speed for a particular grinding wheel
Important to operate within the recommended speed to prevent wheel disintegration and injury

Drilling Machines

Hand drills used for:
- Drilling
- Buffing
- Grinding
- Driving
- Removing screws
Consist of:
- Air-cooled motor
- Gear reducer
- Chuck
- Trigger switch
Hand drill size refers to the maximum diameter drill bit that will fit into the drill chuck
Hand drills available with fixed, two-speed, and variable speed options
Some drills have reversible rotation and other options

Safety Check

Maintain a firm grip on the drill and a good footing
Ensure the drill bit is held tightly in the chuck
Avoid using a larger size drill for heavy drilling to prevent overloading and damage

Drill Press

Available in a range of sizes and types, from small bench type to large radial arm, floor-mounted type
Used for:
- Counter boring
- Spot facing
- Reaming
- Grinding
- Tapping
Drill presses vary in size, determined by the distance from the edge of the column to the center of the spindle

Twist Drill Bits

End cutting tools used to produce holes in most types of materials
Made from carbon steel or high-speed steel
High-speed drill bits considered better due to higher cutting speeds and longer-lasting cutting edges
Consist of:
- Shank
- Body
- Point
Shank: straight or tapered, with a tang on the end to prevent slipping
Body: made up of flutes, margin, and body clearance
Point: consists of the chisel edge, lips, lip clearance, and heel

Drilling Procedures

Lay out holes properly before starting
Centre punch the center of the hole
Drill a pilot hole (approximately 3 mm) for holes over 10 mm to prevent bit wander
Scribe and prick punch the circumference of the hole to ensure the bit has not wandered
Operate the drill press at the correct speed and rate of feed
Consult a drilling chart to determine the correct speed
Use a cutting fluid to provide cooling and lubrication
