There are lots of defects in the drilling process of CFRP, such as splitting, etc, which may affect the assembly quality of the composite materials. Through the analysis of the drilling mechanism of CFRP, and with the help of the correlation experiments of drilling tools, the effects of machining parameters and machining tools on hole quality are studied, the optimal selection method of the drilling tools for CFRP and the selection principle of technical parameters under different machining conditions are also discussed. And the tools geometry affects the hole-machining quality of CFRP materials directly, which should be chosen in accordance with the hole-machining method.

A simulation system was developed to forecast machining quality and optimize grinding parameters for the machining of ceramic die material. The system can forecast the surface quality of machined ceramic die material with high precision, optimize machining parameters and analyze the dominant factors. Based on the process database, the simulation system is applicable to various machining methods. It can help to raise the automaticity for the machining of ceramic die material and develop the farther intelligent system.

It is an important factor that tool size affects the quality and efficiency of complex curved surface of CNC machining. This paper starts with analyzing the functional relationship between the tool size and the quality and efficiency of complex curved surface, gives the selection method of optimal minimum tool which can ensure the precision of machining curved surface, establishes optimal selecting algorithm of reasonable large size tool with the most high efficiency as the objective, and for the curved surface of complex geometric features, puts forward tool combination selection method with effective area ratio of tool machining as a reference. Application examples show: the optimal selecting strategy of tool size in this paper, under the premise of adequately ensuring the machining quality of complex curved surface, can effectively improve the whole machining efficiency.

Hole making process is not strictly to the drilling technique where others machining could also influence to the quality in CFRP hole.Therefore, helical milling process becomes as an alternative method to produces bore on CFRP plate thus minimizing the defects. The common defects on CFRP are delamination, splintering and cracking. Meanwhile, if the CFRP stacking together with aluminum plate, burr at exit hole of aluminium plate is produced. Therefore, it is essential to control the critical machining parameters to assure a good quality of the hole. The main objective of this project is to improve the hole quality of CFRP/AL stack in terms of surface roughness using helical milling technique. In addition the cutting force and temperature will be measured as well. There are three levels of cutting speeds; two levels of feed rate and depth per helical path are made accordingly to helical milling characteristics. It was found that all tool design exhibit comparable performance for helical milling process on CFRP/Al stack.

Plasma arc cutting (PAC) is an unconventional process widely used in manufacturing of heavy plate products. This work reports on the research results of machining quality of the workpiece in the plasma arc cutting on the low carbon low alloy steel. An experimental investigation of the characteristics of machining accuracy and surface integrity was carried out for basic machining parameters (cutting speed, arc current, arc voltage, plasma gas pressure, stand-off distance and nozzle diameter). The kerf geometry was determined with three accuracy parameters (top kerf width, bottom kerf width and kerf taper angle). The parameters of deviation present due to plasma curvature were defined by drag and pitch of drag line. The surface roughness was determined with two main roughness parameters through scanning the surface topography (roughness average and maximum height of the profile). The surface properties were determined over microstructure in heat affected zone (HAZ). The results show an acceptable machining quality of the PAC, so that this process is an excellent choice for fast and efficient material removal. However, the plasma arc cutting is not suitable for the final machining because of the metallurgical variations in the HAZ.


Recently machining of hybrid stacking materials are much interested and challenging in manufacturing domains. Mostly, drill hole quality depends the machining parameters and type of cutting tool. This work investigates the experimental study for effects of drill bit geometry on hole quality of glass laminate aluminum reinforced epoxy (GLARE). GLARE have manufactured by alternative stacking of aluminum (AA7475) and glass fiber (E-glass)/epoxy composite through compression molding machine. Machining of GLARE by using of Computer numerical controller. Hole quality were studied with the aid of optical microscopic. Results show that a drill tip geometry to promote the reduction of delamination and structural damage. Superior hole quality is achieved with 2 fluted drill bit than 3 fluted drill bit.

Detection of quality is a necessary procedure in the processing of machining punched sheets. It includes detection of the size of the holes and the distance of neighbored holes on the punched sheets and other machining parameters. Detection completed by workers is the traditional method which is low precision and low efficiency. According to the requirement of real industrial production this paper approaches a detection system based on machine vision which is used to detect the machining quality of punched sheets. The system is including the methods of detection of sub-pixel edge and circle fitting, and is used to improve the precision of detection. Experiment suggests that the detection result of this system is better.

Accurate and strong fastener assembly depends on precision of the hole. For structural material likes composites, these criteria is very important. Drilling is the most common method in producing hole on composites. But the main problem of drilling is excessive tool wear that may affect the quality of the holes. Punching is another alternative in making a hole. The main objective of this study is to compare between drilling and punching in terms of hole quality. The scanned images of the produced hole will be captured using commercial 3D optical surface measurement method namely Alicona IFM. The effect to the quality of the produced hole will be measured and compared between drilling and punching.
