Usage of Radial Drill Machine in Petroleum Industry

Radial Drilling Machine is most important equipment in the petroleum industry.Radial drill machine enhanced by the basic component; the arm, the column, drill head and the base.The critical operational function of the equipment is the ability of the head to rotate about the column at a radius similar to the arm.The height of the equipment can be adjusted depending on the size of the workpiece.

There it is completely versatile equipment, which has wide-ranging usage, especially in the oil production and conveyance.The equipment is usually set on a workbench or table, while very large types are mounted on the floor.Radial drilling machine uses advanced include reaming, tapping, spot facing, counter drilling. Various models have been advanced for radial drill machine to serve the various industries.

Drilling works in Petroleum Industry

The Petroleum and oil production industry uses heavy machinery, handling equipment exposed heavy corrosion and mechanical breakdowns sometimes in far-off areas.Radial drill machine is vital in repair and handling many large workpieces related to oil research.
Some of the Special Application include:

Reaming
Reaming is the process of enlarging the smaller hole to targeted size and also use to achieve perfect precision because in the petroleum field precision is most important. Drill machine uses for drilled hole in smaller dimension and then rimmed to required diameter size.

Counter Boring
Counter Boring is process of making the enlarging top end of bore to perfect depth creates the square shoulder on the produced bore. Counterboring uses to allow heads of screws to completely flush with surface of workpiece.

Spot Facing: Spot Facing is process of smoothing round edge of bore to create leveling surface of countersink. It also uses for fit tightly bolts, nuts, and washers below the work piece surface.

Countersinking: Countersinking is processing to create bore for flat headed screws.There are different angels but 82 degrees and 60degress are common angles of counter screws.

Tapping: tapping is process of creating a thread to bore and during a process of tapping power machine is not necessary so the chuck is turned by hand until the thread is created to drilled bore.Achieving proper tapping tap wrench is used for greater power and grip.Drill chunk using for tapping larger holes in fixed position.

The radial drill is important in the petroleum industry is critical and especially where high precision is required. The ability of the radial drill machine to accommodate different tool bits has also enhanced its applicability in the oil production and conveyance industry.
