Studies on the Determination of Cutting Regime Optimal Parameters for Drilling Operation – Comparative Analysis between the Results Obtained by Using Analytical Method and Automated Method of Calculation
From practical experience is well known that the establishment of the right values for the cutting regime parameters (without taking into consideration the cutting schematics) is requiring a large volume of work, thorough calculations and accurate input information regarding the process to be conducted. The high competition from the market is generating increased requirements concerning the productivity of processes, quality of the products as well as the production costs. There it is a strong correlation between these issues and the accurate determination of the cutting regime parameters. This article presents the methods of calculation for the cutting regime parameters for drilling process by using analytical method (classical) and automated method (by using specialized software packages) and the analysis of the results obtained with the goal of establishing which of them are providing the best results in the shortest period of time.
