Super Alloy

Nickel-based super-alloy belongs to difficult-to-machine materials, its machinability is low. To find out the difficulties of drilling nickel-based super-alloy, it is necessary to study the drilling process. The study on the drilling process of nickel-based super-alloy Inconel 718 is discussed from two aspects, drilling deformation and drilling forces distribution. For studying the drilling deformation characteristics and influence laws, the drilling chip specimens are obtained by using self-made drilling quick-stop device. Then, the empirical formula of shear angle is also given. Finally, the drilling forces distribution is studied. Results shows that: drilling deformation decreases when the distance to chisel edge, drilling speed and feed rate increases; drilling deformation of Inconel 718 is larger than AISI 1045; the ratio of torque and thrust force on the lead cutting edge is 29%~33%, 74%~77%, respectively; the torque and thrust force of Inconel 718 is about 1.8~2.3 times than that of AISI 1045.

Drilling Process

Drilling is an important machining process in various manufacturing industries. High-quality holes are possible with the proper selection of tools and cutting parameters. This study investigates the effect of spindle speed, feed rate, and drill diameter on the generated thrust force, the formation of chips, post-machining tool condition, and hole quality. The hole surface defects and the top and bottom edge conditions were also investigated using scan electron microscopy. The drilling tests were carried out on AA2024-T3 alloy under a dry drilling environment using 6 and 10 mm uncoated carbide tools. Analysis of Variance was employed to further evaluate the influence of the input parameters on the analysed outputs. The results show that the thrust force was highly influenced by feed rate and drill size. The high spindle speed resulted in higher surface roughness, while the increase in the feed rate produced more burrs around the edges of the holes. Additionally, the burrs formed at the exit side of holes were larger than those formed at the entry side. The high drill size resulted in greater chip thickness and an increased built-up edge on the cutting tools.

The bone drilling process is very prominent in orthopedic surgeries and in the repair of bone fractures. It is also very common in dentistry and bone sampling operations. Due to the complexity of bone and the sensitivity of the process, bone drilling is one of the most important and sensitive processes in biomedical engineering. Orthopedic surgeries can be improved using robotic systems and mechatronic tools. The most crucial problem during drilling is an unwanted increase in process temperature (higher than 47 °C), which causes thermal osteonecrosis or cell death and local burning of the bone tissue. Moreover, imposing higher forces to the bone may lead to breaking or cracking and consequently cause serious damage. In this study, a mathematical second-order linear regression model as a function of tool drilling speed, feed rate, tool diameter, and their effective interactions is introduced to predict temperature and force during the bone drilling process. This model can determine the maximum speed of surgery that remains within an acceptable temperature range. Moreover, for the first time, using designed experiments, the bone drilling process was modeled, and the drilling speed, feed rate, and tool diameter were optimized. Then, using response surface methodology and applying a multi-objective optimization, drilling force was minimized to sustain an acceptable temperature range without damaging the bone or the surrounding tissue. In addition, for the first time, Sobol statistical sensitivity analysis is used to ascertain the effect of process input parameters on process temperature and force. The results show that among all effective input parameters, tool rotational speed, feed rate, and tool diameter have the highest influence on process temperature and force, respectively. The behavior of each output parameters with variation in each input parameter is further investigated. Finally, a multi-objective optimization has been performed considering all the aforementioned parameters. This optimization yielded a set of data that can considerably improve orthopedic osteosynthesis outcomes.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

Drilling experiments of titanium alloy Ti6Al4V were conducted. Taking the speed and feed as the process variables, a set of experimental cutting forces are obtained and compared. From the experimental results it is concluded that within the experimental extent the thrust force and torque of drilling process rises with the feed rate. The lower spindle speed resulted in the greater amount of thrust. Feed rates have greater influence on the thrust force than the spindle speed. The combination of greater feed rate and lower spindle speed results in the maximum amount of thrust. However, combination of greater feed rate and spindle speed resulted in maximum amount of torque.

Drill Point

Drill point angle of twist drill has a significant effect on thrust force and delamination factor on drilled holes in fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. In this study, three drill point angle of twist drill; 85°, 118° and 135° were used to drill holes in hybrid fiber reinforced polymeric composite (HFRP). HFRP composites were fabricated using vacuum infusion molding (VIM) technique. The test samples were cured at 90°C for two hours. In drilling process various drill point angle and feed rate were employed to investigate the effect of both parameters on thrust force and delamination factor when drilling the HFRP composite. The results showed that small drill point angle and low feed rate can reduce the thrust force leading to the reduction of damage factor at the holes entrance and exit.

Supported holes of Printed circuit board (PCB) are drilled with two different drill bits. Drilling force (thrust force and torque) and chip morphology are examined at different cutting parameters, and the effects of the two drills are discussed. The results indicate that the drilling force and chip morphology are affected by the feed rate, spindle speed and drill shape. Thrust force increases with the increasing feed rate, and decreases with the increasing spindle speed. Optimization of drill geometry can reduce the thrust force significantly, and is effective in chip breaking which can improve the chip evacuation during the drilling process.

Drilling is one of the complex machining processes, which has been widely applied in the manufacturing area. In this paper, a 3D coupled thermo-mechanical finite element model was used for simulating the thrust force, torque and von Mises equivalent stress at different cutting conditions. The J-C damage model (shear failure) was used in conjunction with the J-C plasticity model, as well as the continuous adaptive remeshing technical. The results show that the thrust force and torque increase with the increasing of the cutting speed and feed rate, and the influence of the feed rate is more obviously.

Finite Thrust

Drilling is a complex three dimensional cutting process yet it is possible to simulate the action of a two flute twist drill with two dimensional models provided consideration is given to the influence of the feed velocity on the cutting geometry at the drill point. Two models of chip formation and an indentation model are developed to simulate the action of the drill point. From these models equations are derived for the prediction of total torque and thrust given the cutting conditions, drill geometry, and an empirical factor which is related to the work material. Computed values of torque and thrust are shown to compare favorably with those obtained from drilling tests on an 0.45 percent C steel. The shape and magnitude of the wear zone about the chisel edge is estimated and it is shown that the observed finite thrust force as the feed rate approaches zero can be attributed to the “cutting” action of the chisel edge.

Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP)-stainless steel stacks used in the aircraft structural components. The assembly process of this components requires mechanical joining using bolt and nut. The drilling process is commonly used for producing hole to position the bolt correctly. Thrust force and torque are responses that used to evaluate the performance of drilling process. The quality characteristic of these responses are “smaller-is-better.” The aim of this experiment is to identify the combination of process parameters for achieving required multiple performance characteristics in drilling process of GFRP-stainless steel stacks materials. The three important process parameters, i.e., point angle, spindle speed, and feed rate were used as input parameters. Point angle was set at two different levels, whilethe other two were set at three different levels. Hence, a 2 x 3 x 3 full factorial was used as designexperiments. The experiments were replicated two times. The optimization was conducted by using genetic algorithm method. The minimum thrust force and torque could be obtained by using point angle, spindle speed and feed rate of 118o, 2383 rpm, 62 mm/min respectively.

Abstract Nickel-based superalloys have been extensively used in the aerospace industry due to their excellent mechanical properties at elevated temperatures. The mechanical properties of the Inconel-718 majorly depend on its microstructure which can be controlled using thermomechanical treatments. Machining of the heat-treated Inconel-718 component is very difficult due to very high hardness. This paper investigates the relationship between the material microstructure developed through a thermomechanical process and the machinability through micro-drilling of Inconel-718. In this study, a wide range of microstructures with hardness ranging from 179 HV to 461 HV was achieved by different thermomechanical and heat-treatment processes. Flank wear, thrust force, and burr height analysis were carried out to understand the machining behavior after micro-drilling. Electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD) technique was used to characterize the microstructure. No correlation between grain size and thrust force was observed. However, a clear trend between thrust force and hardness was established. It was also observed through misorientation analysis that the machined surface deforms significantly with material hardness.

Abstract Metal-composite laminates and joints are applied in aircraft manufacturing and maintenance (repairing) using aluminum alloys (AA) and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP). In these applications, drilling has a prominent place due to its vast application in aeronautical structures’ mechanical joints. Thus, this study presents the influence of uncoated carbide drills (85C, 86C, H10N), cutting speeds (v c = 20, 40, and 60 m min−1), and feed rates (f = 0.05, 0.15, and 0.25 mm rev−1) on delamination factor, thrust force ( F t {F}_{\text{t}} ), and burr formation in dry drilling metal-composite laminates and joints (AA2024/GFRP/AA2024). Experiments were performed, analyzed, and optimized using the Box–Behnken statistical design. Microscopic digital images for delamination evaluation, piezoelectric dynamometer for thrust force acquisition, and burr analysis were considered. The major finding was that the thrust force during drilling depends significantly on the feed rate. Another significant factor was the influence of the drill type (combined or not with feed rate). In fact, it was verified that the feed rate and the drill type were the most significant parameters on the delamination factor, while the feed rate was the most relevant on thrust force. The cutting speed did not affect significantly thrust force and delamination factor at exit ( F da S ) \hspace{.25em}({F}_{{\text{da}}_{\text{S}}}) . However, the combination f × v c was significant in delamination factor at entrance   ( F da E ) \text{ }({F}_{{\text{da}}_{\text{E}}}) . Based on the optimized input parameters, they presented lower values for delamination factors ( F da E = 1.18 {F}_{{\text{da}}_{\text{E}}}=1.18 and F da S = 1.33 {F}_{{\text{da}}_{\text{S}}}=\hspace{.25em}1.33 ) and thrust force ( F t = 67.3 N {F}_{\text{t}}=67.3\hspace{.5em}\text{N} ). These values were obtained by drilling the metal-composite laminates with 85C-tool, 0.05 mm rev−1 feed rate, and 20 m min−1 cutting speed. However, the burrs at the hole output of AA2024 were considered unsatisfactory for this specific condition, which implies additional investigation.
