Micro drilling is one of the most important machining types and its necessity becomes more and more increasing in the whole field of industry. Micro drilling, however, has few the case of practical application, because it requests high techniques : manufacturing micro drill, treating chip, producting precise hole shape and progressing machining effeciency. Micro drilling has a technical problem: drill breakage from the lack of drill rigdity and the interuption of chip. It is, therefore, essential to select the proper cutting conditions and the step fed for the method solving the lack of rigidity and the interruption of chip. Especially, step feed is very efficient to avoid the breakage of drill, but bring about reducing of cutting efficiency. The study on step feed must be requested more than the present in the near future. The purpose of this paper is to investigate experimentally about cutting conditions which affect on tools and round errors and to estimate about the effect of step feed as well as optimal step feed size to solve the breakage of drill.
