Abstract

A drill grinder for grinding a point of a drill including a shank, and a body which has the point. The drill grinder includes a holding device for removably holding the drill, and a grinding wheel adapted to be forced on the drill point, and to thereby grind the point while the drill is held by the holding device. The holding device includes a first chuck for gripping the shank of the drill, and a second chuck for gripping the body of the drill. The grinder has a holder mounting device for removably holding the holder device during a grinding operation on the drill by the grinding wheel. The grinder may further includes a drill setting device for removably accommodating the holding device, to position the drill in a predetermined circumferential position relative to the second chuck, prior to the grind operation.
