Distinguish, differentiate, compare and explain what is the difference between Boring and Reaming. Comparison and Differences.
Differences between Boring and Reaming
| S.No. | Boring | Reaming |
| 1 | Boring is performed to enlarge the diameter of an existing hole. | Reaming is performed to finish hole surfaces and to improve tolerance. |
| 2 | Cutting tool used for boring is known as boring bar. | Cutting tool used for reaming is called reamer. |
| 3 | Boring can increase diameter of an existing hole but not length. | Neither diameter nor length can be increased substantially by reaming. |
| 4 | Boring bar is a single point cutting tool. | Reamer is a multi-point cutting tool. |
| 5 | Surface quality is lower than Reaming. | Reaming produces highly finished surface. |
| 6 | A pre-drilled hole (or a hollow portion made by casting) is mandatory for performing boring. | Similar to boring, reaming can be performed only if a hollow part or hole exists. |
| 7 | Has High MRR. | MRR is poor; in fact, MRR is not an issue in reaming. |
