Analysis of Surface Roughness in Drilling of Fly Ash Filled Carbon Fibre Reinforced Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

Carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) composite materials has unique mechanical and functional properties due to the combination of its constituent materials that possesses desirable properties. The present paper focuses on analysis of surface roughness in drilling of fly ash filled carbon fibre reinforced composites produced through compression moulding route. Experiments are conducted on a radial drilling machine using Taguchi’s experimental design. Drilling test is carried out using coated HSS drill of 6 and 10 mm diameter. The effect of drill diameter, wt % of fly ash, spindle speed and the feed rate are investigated on surface roughness. The relative significance of the various parameters has been found using ANOVA.
