BORING MACHINE
5.12.1. Introduction
Boring is an operation of enlarging a hole. Boring a small hole in a small work piece can
be done in a lathe. Boring either a small or large hole is done easily and efficiently in a boring
machine. The work is placed either in the floor or in the table. A revolving single point cutting
tool removes the material. Drilling, milling and facing operations also can be performed in this
machine. Screw cutting, turning and gear cutting operations also can be done by using simple
attachments.

SPOT FACING
Machining off small uneven surface to make it plane and smooth to 
act as a seat
Same tools as Counterboring can be used
TREPANNING
Operation of making very deep and large hole on a solid workpiece
Hollow body with carbide tips brazed onto edge
Usually done on a trepanning machine/lathe
