ABSTRACT:
A drill tool is mounted to a robotic arm and is capable of operating in limited access space. The drill is driven by a motor shaft capable of exhibiting simultaneous linear and rotational motion. A right angle drill head is slidably mounted to a support and is driven by the motor shaft so that the drill bit moves toward a work piece while it rotates. A cylinder-driven clamp has its jaws coaxially aligned with a drill bit and is capable of clamping several pieces together, the latter constituting a work piece. One of the clamp jaws has a bushing which serves as both a drill guide and a clamp jaw.
