Evaluation of Cutting Characteristics for Hot-Drilling of Stainless Steel

Stainless steel used widely in various fields of industry have the characteristics of difficulty-to-cut. This difficulty comes from its peculiarity, for example work hardening, vibration, etc. And these peculiarity on the cutting process have an effect on tool wear or life shortness of tools. To solve these problems several method have been developed. Hot-machining is one way of these method. when a material is heated, organization of material is soften. So cutting process becomes easy. When such a hot-machining method applies on drilling process and then heated material is processed, cutting force is less than usual drilling process cutting force. In this paper, cutting force is compared heated SUS 304 with usual SUS 304. And shape of chips is also compared.
