This Experiment was carried out for bur minimization in drilling. New drill geometries are proposed to minimize the burr formation in drilling operation. Three types of drills are made, champer, round and step drill. The burr formed in first cutting by front cutting edge ca be removed in second cutting by the cutting edges in chamfer, round edge and step. New burrs are formed by second cutting and can be minimized according to the change of drill geometry like, chamfer size and angle, corner radius in round drill and step size and angle in step drill. To measure the burr formed in drilling, laser sensor is used.

To facilitate the manufacturing of dull using CNC grinding machine, the simulation of helical groove machining with given wheel profile and setting condition is necessary. Considering the wheel as a collection of thin disks, the flute configuration is predicted in a cross section perpendicular to the axis and the grinding wheel profile is also predicted to machine the desired helical groove with given setting conditions. Two programs for these processes are developed. Using programs interactively, the helical groove machining process can be predicted more accurately. By clarifying the geometrical relation between the shape of cutting edge and the flute configuration in the cross section which is perpendicular to drill axis, it becomes possible to predict the necessary cross sectional shape of wheel for desired drill cutting edge shape. Some factors for the software are considered concerning prediction of accuracy and computing time.

Carbide-tipped twist drill of new type which is better than traditional H.S.S twist drill has been developed successfully to drill steel work-pieces with high speed. This new carbide drill consists of a characteristic flature of special shape of cutting edge, chip pocket, and flute. The special design of the chip pocket and the flute guarantees both periodic fracture and smooth transport of chips along the flute. The carbide-tipped twist drill also allows one to apply more drilling force than conventional one and produce holes with high accuracy.

The BTA drilling chip is better for deep hole drilling than other self-piloting with pad drilling chips because the large length to diameter ratio allows a unique cutting force dispersion and better supplies the high pressure fluid. Therefore the BTA is useful for many tasks, such as coolant hole drilling of large scale dies, as well as tube seat drilling, which is essential for the heat exchanger, and variable component drilling for automobiles. Deep hole drilling has several significant problems, such as hole deviation, hole over-size, circularity, straightness, and surface roughness. The reasons for these problems, which often result in quality short comings, are an alignment of the BTA drilling system and the unbalance of cutting force by work piece and tool shape. This paper analyzes the properties through an experiment which com¬pared single-edge BTA drills with multiple-edge BTA drills, as well as the shapes of the tools to cause an unbalance of cutting force, and its effect on the precision of the worked hole. Conclusions are as follows. 1) In SMSSC drilling, 60m/min of BTA with single and multi-edged tools proved the best cutting condition and the lowest wear character. 2) The roundness got a little worse as cutting speed was increased, but surface roughness was hot affected. 3) It was proved that the burnishing torque of both drills approached 26%. which is almost the same as the 24% insisted on by Griffiths, and the dispersion characteristic of the multi-edged BTA drill proved better than the single-edge BTA drill.

Drilling process is one of the most common, yet complex operations among manufacturing processes. The performance of a drill is largely dependent upon drilling forces, Many researches focused on the effects of drill parameters on drilling forces. In this paper, an effective theoretical model to predict thrust and torque in drilling is presented. Also, with the predicted forces, the stress analysis of the drill tool is performed by the finite element method. The model uses the oblique cutting model for the cutting lips and the orthogonal cutting model for the chisel edge. Thrust and torque are calculated analytically without resorting to any drilling experiment, only by tool geometry, cutting conditions and material properties. The stress analysis is performed by the commercial FEM program ANSYS. The geometric modeling and the mesh generation of a twist drill are performed automatically. From the study, the effects of the variation of the geometric features of the drill and of the cutting conditions of the drilling on the drilling forces and the stress distributions in the tool are calculated analytically, which can be applicable for designing optimal drill geometry and for improving the drilling process.

In conventional drilling, burr geometry can be changed according to the variation of drill geometry like point angle, rake angle. Step drilling is proposed to minimize the burr formation in drilling operation. The burr formed in first cutting can be removed in second cutting by the edge in step. The burr formed in second cutting by the edge in step can be minimized according to the change of geometry like, step angle and depth. The mechanism in step drilling is analyzed. Some step drills are applied to drilling the input shaft which is used for vehicle steering. To measure the burr formed in drilling, laser and height gage are used.

This paper describes the PCB drilling using an ultra high-speed air bearing spindle system and micro drill. For this research, we have developed the ultra high-speed air bearing spindle of 125,000 rpm and made an experiment for the application possibility in the PCB drilling. In order to estimate the drilling performance, we have investigated the size and damage of drilled hole, and the wear of drill at 90,000rpm. Results are as follows; we have confirmed the possibility in the PCB drilling of air bearing spindle. In case of micro-drilling PCB at $0.1mm\sim0.3mm$, the increase in the number of drilling has resulted in a bigger size of holes and also a bigger size of damage. It has been found that the wear of micro drill tends to concentrate in the main cutting edge.

The deep hole drilling has an increasing demands because of its wide range applications and its good productivity. The BTA drills are capable of machining for having a large length to diameter ratio in single pass to higher degree of accuracy and surface finish. It's really necessary that the investigation for the deep hole drilling by the BTA drill because its required quality should be satisfied with single pass. This thesis deal with the experimental results obtained during single tube BTA system machining on SM55C steel for different machining conditions. The results of the investigation on the optimum cutting condition selecting and tool life reveals as follows. (1) The optimum cutting condition was cutting speed, V = 42 m/min and feed speed. F = 90 mm/min and the tool life was about 10 meters. (2) Surface roughness was $12\mum$ and the roundness was less using $16mum$single edge BTA drill in testing cutting condition.

Applications of the deep hole drilling process can be found in many industries ranging from large aerospace manufacturer to small tool and die shop. Deep hole drilling process with small diameter generally requires high quality and accuracy. But problems which may arise or result from the deep hole drilling process include drill breakage, the generation of a finished part surface which does not satisfy required quality, and process instability. To guaranty the required machining quality and accuracy, it is important to understand and improve the deep hole drilling process. In this study, deep hole drilling experiments using tingle edge drill with small diameter under 2mm have been carried out for difficult to cut materials such as C42CrMo4 and C45pb and the experimental results were analyzed. Feed force and torque versus feed showed linear relationship in both materials. The feed force and torque are decreased as cutting speed is increased but the trends are not uniform in C42CrMo4.

The drilling experiment of carbon fiber epoxy composite material with WC-drill has been done under the various cutting conditions in order to minimize the problems occurred in the material while being drilled. It has been confirmed by a frequency analysis of the cutting force signals that the variation of cutting force resulted from the periodic variation of the angle between the ortating drill and the stacking angle of the carbon fiber. By the drilling experiment with several drills having different point angles, the drilling char- acteristics, which show the relations between the change in the point angle and cutting force or external surface condition, were analyzed.
