  • effects of peripheral Drilling moment on delamination using special Drill Bits
    Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2008
    Co-Authors: C C Tsao, H Hocheng
    Abstract:

    The delamination damage caused by the Drilling thrust has been recognized as one of the major problems during Drilling. Based on the earlier concentrated-load model proposed, the thrust force is the main cause to delaminate at the Drill exit in workpiece. However, the central concentrated loading (twist Drill) is considered a special case of the general condition also with circular loading (saw Drill, candle stick Drill and core Drill). A comprehensive critical thrust force model considering the effects of the peripheral moment for saw Drill, candle stick Drill and core Drill compared with twist Drill is constructed in the present study. In this analysis, the critical thrust force associated with the effect of distributed peripheral moment causing the onset of delamination in use of special Drills is predicted and discussed.

  • effects of special Drill Bits on Drilling induced delamination of composite materials
    International Journal of Machine Tools & Manufacture, 2006
    Co-Authors: H Hocheng, C C Tsao
    Abstract:

    Drilling is the most frequently employed operation of secondary machining for fiber-reinforced materials owing to the need for joining structures. Delamination is among the serious concerns during Drilling. Practical experience proves the advantage of using such special Drills as saw Drill, candle stick Drill, core Drill and step Drill. The experimental investigation described in this paper examines the theoretical predictions of critical thrust force at the onset of delamination, and compares the effects of these different Drill Bits. The results confirm the analytical findings and are consistent with the industrial experience. Ultrasonic scanning is used to evaluate the extent of Drilling-induced delamination. The advantage of these special Drills is illustrated mathematically as well as experimentally, that their thrust force is distributed toward the Drill periphery instead of being concentrated at the center. The allowable feed rate without causing delamination is also increased. The analysis can be extended to examine the effects of other future innovative Drill Bits.

  • the path towards delamination free Drilling of composite materials
    Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2005
    Co-Authors: H Hocheng, C C Tsao
    Abstract:

    Abstract The fiber-reinforced composite materials possess advantage for structural purpose in various industries. Delamination is considered the major concern in manufacturing the parts and assembly. Drilling is frequently applied in production cycle while the anisotropy and non-homogeneity of composite materials affect the chip deformation and machining behavior during Drilling. Traditional and non-traditional Drilling processes are feasible for making fine holes for composite materials by carefully selected tool, method and operating conditions. In this article, the path towards the delamination-free Drilling of composite material is reviewed. The major scenes are illustrated including the aspects of the analytical approach, the practical use of special Drill Bits, pilot hole and back-up plate, and the employment of non-traditional machining method.

  • taguchi analysis of delamination associated with various Drill Bits in Drilling of composite material
    International Journal of Machine Tools & Manufacture, 2004
    Co-Authors: C C Tsao, H Hocheng
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper presents a prediction and evaluation of delamination factor in use of twist Drill, candle stick Drill and saw Drill. The approach is based on Taguchi’s method and the analysis of variance (ANOVA). An ultrasonic C-Scan to examine the delamination of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) laminate is used in this paper. The experiments were conducted to study the delamination factor under various cutting conditions. The experimental results indicate that the feed rate and the Drill diameter are recognized to make the most significant contribution to the overall performance. The objective was to establish a correlation between feed rate, spindle speed and Drill diameter with the induced delamination in a CFRP laminate. The correlation was obtained by multi-variable linear regression and compared with the experimental results.

    Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2003
    Co-Authors: H Hocheng, C C Tsao
    Abstract:

    Abstract Beside the twist Drill, the effects of various Drill geometries were rarely discussed in analytical fashion. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of delamination in use of various Drill types, such as saw Drill, candle stick Drill, core Drill and step Drill. In this analysis, the critical thrust force at the onset of delamination is predicted and compared with the twist Drill.

  • examination of wear damage to rock mining hardmetal Drill Bits
    International Journal of Refractory Metals & Hard Materials, 2017
    Co-Authors: H G Jones, Mihalis Kritikos, Susanne Norgren, K P Mingard
    Abstract:

    Abstract WC/Co mining Bits from a Drill head used for Drilling holes for roof support bolts in a mine were examined using a focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB-SEM). This was combined with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses to study the chemical interaction between the Drill bit and the rock. It was found that at the surface of the buttons there was depletion of cobalt, change in chemistry of the remaining binder regions, and changes to the morphology of the WC grains. Tribochemistry calculations were done to understand the possible formation of silicides at the surface of the Drill Bits, and thus emphasise the importance of quartz content in rock on wear. The evidence of mechanical damage combined with chemical reactions is another step towards understanding the complete wear process in hardmetal mining tools.
