    The document describes the key components and features of a single-point cutting tool and drill bit. It outlines 7 main parts of a cutting tool: the shank, flank, face, heel, nose, cutting edge, and various angles. It then describes 11 components of a drill bit: the axis, diameter, back taper, body, neck, shank, tang, point, flank, flutes, and other angles like helix angle and point angle.

    Single-point cutting tool

    1. Shank:
    This is the main body of the tool. The shank is used to hold the tool (i.e tool holder).

    2. Flank:
    The surface or surface below and adjacent to the cutting edge is called flank of the
    tool.

    3. Face:
    The surface on which the chips slide is called the face of the tool.

    4. Heel:
    It is the intersection of the flan and the base of the tool. It is a curved portion at the
    bottom of the tool.

    5. Nose:
    It is the point where the side cutting edge and end cutting edge intersects.

    6. Noise radius:
    The nose radius will provide long life and also good surface finish with it a sharp
    point on the nose.

    7. Cutting edge:
    It is the edge on the face of the tool which removes the material from the workpiece.

    The tool cutting edge consists of side cutting edge (major cutting edge), end cutting
    edge (minor cutting edge and the nose).

    Angle:

    1. Side cutting edge angle:


    This angle also is known as the lead angle. This is the angle between the side
    cutting edge and side of the tool shank.

    2. End cutting edge angle:


    This is the angle between the end cutting edge and a line normal to the tool shank.

    3. Side relief angle:
    It is the angle between the portion of the side flank immediately below the side
    cutting edge and a line perpendicular to the base of the tool and measured at the
    right angle to the end flank.

    4. End relief angle:


    It is the angle between the portion of the end flank immediately below the end cutting
    edge and a line perpendicular to the base of the tool and measured at the right angle
    to the end flank.
    5. Back rack angle :
    It is the angle between the tool face and a line parallel to the base of the tool and
    measured in a plane perpendicular through the side cutting edge.

    The back rack angle is positive if the side cutting edge slopes downwards from the
    point towards the shank and The back rack angle is negative if the slope is side
    cutting edge is reversed.

    6. Side rack angle:


    It is the angle between the tool face and a line parallel to the base of the tool and
    measured in a plane perpendicular to the base and the side cutting edge.

    This angle gives the slope of the face of the tool from the cutting edge.

    The side rack angle is negative if the slope is toward the cutting edge. And the side
    rack angle is positive if the slope is away from the cutting edge.
    Drill Bit

     Axis:  It is the longitudinal center-line of the drill.


     Diameter: Largest diameter measured across the top of the lands behind
    the point.
     Back Taper:
     The diameter reduces slightly toward the shank end of the drill,
    this is known as “back taper”.
     Back taper provides clearance between the drill and work-piece
    preventing friction and heat.
     Body: It is the part of the drill from its extreme point to the
    commencement of the neck.
     Neck : The portion with reduced diameter in between body and shank.
     Shank : It is the part of the drill by which it is held and driven. The shank
    may be straight or taper.
     Tang : The flattened end of the taper shank is known as tang.
     Point : It is the conical sharpened end of the drill.
     Flank  : Surface of drill which extends behind the lip to flute.
     Flutes : The grooves in the body of the drill are known as flutes.
     Flute Length:
     The length of flute measured from the drill point to the end of
    the flute run out.
     Flute length determines the maximum depth of drilling.
     Margins: The cylindrical portion of the land that is not cut away to
    provide clearance.
     Helix Angle: Angle formed between a line drawn parallel to the axis of
    the drill and the edge of the land. (30° or 45°)
     Point angle : This is the angle included between the two lips projected
    upon a plane parallel to the drill axis and parallel to the two cutting lips.
    (118°).
     Chisel Edge : it is the point where two cutting lips meets at extreme tip.
     Chisel Edge Angle : Angle between chisel edge and cutting lip measured
    plane normal to axis.
