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:
“One does not realize the historical sensation as a re-experiencing, but as an understanding that is closely related to the understanding of music, or rather of the world by means of music.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“All the followers of science are fully persuaded that the processes of investigation, if only pushed far enough, will give one certain solution to each question to which they can be applied.... This great law is embodied in the conception of truth and reality. The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed to by all who investigate is what we mean by the truth, and the object represented in this opinion is the real.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
