Drilling is one of the most performed machining operations for riveting and assembly operations in many industrial sectors. The accuracy of the drilled holes and their surface finish play a vital role in the longevity and performance of the machined components, which, in turn, increase productivity. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of the multi-spindle drilling process on dimensional hole tolerances, such as hole size, circularity, cylindricity, and perpendicularity. In addition, the surface defects formed in the holes were examined using scanning electron microscopy. Three aluminium alloys, AA2024, AA6061, and AA5083, which are commonly used in the aerospace, automotive, and …

S2 glass fibre reinforced epoxy composites are widely used in aeronautical applications owing to their excellent strength to weight ratio. Drilling glass fibres can be cumbersome due to their abrasive nature and poor thermal conductivity. Moreover, the use of conventional coolants is not desirable due to contamination and additional costs for cleaning the machine part. An alternative is to use environmentally friendly coolants such as liquid nitrogen (LN2) which have been previously employed in machining metals and composites. The current study investigates the effect of drilling S2 glass fibre composite in a bath of LN2. The study aims to evaluate …


The Effect Of Tin-, Ticn-, Tialn-, And Tisin Coated Tools On The Surface Defects And Geometric Tolerances Of Holes In Multi-Spindle Drilling Of Al2024 Alloy, Muhammad Aamir, Adrian Davis, William Keeble, Ugur Koklu, Khaled Giasin, Ana Vafadar, Majid Tolouei Rad Jan 2021

The Effect Of Tin-, Ticn-, Tialn-, And Tisin Coated Tools On The Surface Defects And Geometric Tolerances Of Holes In Multi-Spindle Drilling Of Al2024 Alloy, Muhammad Aamir, Adrian Davis, William Keeble, Ugur Koklu, Khaled Giasin, Ana Vafadar, Majid Tolouei Rad

The integrity of machined holes depends on many parameters, some of which are related to the cutting tool (geometry, coating, material). Other influential parameters are related to the machining process variables (spindle speed, feed rate, workpiece material), all of which can affect the quality of the hole and drilling induced damage on its surface. This study investigates the effect of uncoated tools and four types of tool coatings (TiN-, TiCN-, TiAlN-, and TiSiN) on the hole quality and its microstructure. The study analyzed several hole geometrical metrics, namely hole size, circularity, cylindricity, and perpendicularity of an Al2024 aluminum alloy using …

Millions of holes are produced in many industries where efficient drilling is considered the key factor in their success. High-quality holes are possible with the proper selection of drilling process parameters, appropriate tools, and machine setup. This paper deals with the effects of drilling parameters such as spindle speed and feed rate on the chips analysis and the hole quality like surface roughness, hole size, circularity, and burr formation. Al7075-T6 alloy, commonly used in the aerospace industry, was used for the drilling process, and the dry drilling experiments were performed using high-speed steel drill bits. Results have shown that surface …
