Abstract:
Formation of entrance and exit defects in coarse pitch orbital drilling (CPOD) of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) plates was investigated. Deep observation on entrance and exit morphology shows tear and burr are typical defects. Meanwhile, tear is more obvious than burr, and more entrance tears emerge than exit tears. As one of the major causes of entrance and exit defects in CPOD, cutting forces were substaintially studied by contr ast experiments. Then, the effect of cutting parameters on entrance and exit tear was qualitatively analyzed through a single factor test. Experiment results indicate that the variation of rotation speed has little influence on entrance and exit tear. Increasing tangential feed per tooth can enlarge entrance tear, but bring little effect on exit tear. By increasing axial feed pitch, the hole entrance and exit show severe tear. When revolution radius grows bigger and bigger, entrance and exit tear firstly decreases, and then increases. Finally, the models of tear and delamination during CPOD of CFRP were established, the formation mechanisms of entrance and exit defects were revealed, and the ontrol strategies were accordingly put forward.
