  2. Boring (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_(manufacturing)

    A part's-eye view of a boring bar. Hole types: Blind hole (left), through hole (middle), interrupted hole (right). In machining, boring is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled (or cast) by means of a single-point cutting tool (or of a boring head containing several such tools), such as in boring a gun barrel or an engine cylinder.

  3. Boring (earth) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_(earth)

    Boring is drilling a hole, tunnel, or well in the Earth. It is used for various applications in geology, agriculture, hydrology, civil engineering, and mineral exploration. Today, most Earth drilling serves one of the following purposes: return samples of the soil and/or rock through which the drill passes

  4. Borehole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borehole

    K.S. Tom describes the drilling process: "The Chinese method of deep drilling was accomplished by a team of men jumping on and off a beam to impact the drilling bit while the boring tool was rotated by buffalo and oxen." [4] This was the same method used for extracting petroleum in California during the 1860s (i.e. "kicking her down").

  5. Directional boring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_boring

    Directional boring machine. Directional boring, also referred to as horizontal directional drilling (HDD), is a minimal impact trenchless method of installing underground utilities such as pipe, conduit, or cables in a relatively shallow arc or radius along a prescribed underground path using a surface-launched drilling rig.

  6. Boring bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_bar

    Boring is a technique used in many aspects of building. Woodworkers have used boring as a form of drilling for centuries. In woodworking, the boring tool is static in size and used to form circular plunge cuts. In metalworking, boring is slightly different in that the hole that results need not be circular.

    Boring (earth), drilling a hole, tunnel, or well in the earth Tunnel boring machine, a machine used in boring tunnels; Boring (manufacturing), enlarging a hole that has already been drilled; Drilling, a cutting process that uses a drill bit to cut a hole of circular cross-section; Boring, a mechanism of bioerosion

  8. Counterbore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterbore

    A counterbore hole is typically used when a fastener, such as a socket head cap screw or fillister head screw, is required to sit flush with or below the level of a workpiece's surface. Whereas a counterbore is a flat-bottomed enlargement of a smaller coaxial hole, a countersink is a conical enlargement of such.

  9. Raise borer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raise_borer

    A schematic overview of the machinery used irony a raised boring. A raise borer is a machine used in underground mining, to excavate a circular hole between two levels of a mine without the use of explosives. The raise borer is set up on the upper level of the two levels to be connected, on an evenly laid platform (typically a concrete pad).
