Related Processes
The following are some related processes that often accompany drilling:
- Counterboring
- This process creates a stepped hole in which a larger diameter follows a smaller diameter partially into a hole.
- Countersinking
- This process is similar to counterboring but the step in the hole is cone-shaped.
- Boring
- Boring precisely enlarges an already existing hole using a single point cutter.
- Friction drilling
- drilling holes using plastic deformation of the subject (under heat and pressure) instead of cutting it.

Famous quotes containing the words related and/or processes:
“The question of place and climate is most closely related to the question of nutrition. Nobody is free to live everywhere; and whoever has to solve great problems that challenge all his strength actually has a very restricted choice in this matter. The influence of climate on our metabolism, its retardation, its acceleration, goes so far that a mistaken choice of place and climate can not only estrange a man from his task but can actually keep it from him: he never gets to see it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It has become a people’s war, and peoples of all sorts and races, of every degree of power and variety of fortune, are involved in its sweeping processes of change and settlement.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
