Cutting Force in Drilling with Flat Bottom Drill

Article Preview

Abstract:

Flat bottom drills at a point angle of 180 deg. have recently been applied to not only drilling on inclined surfaces but also flat bottom holes in terms of the dimensional accuracy and the process efficiency. Controlling the cutting force, the tool damage, and the surface finish, the corner shape is a critical parameter in the design of the flat bottom drill. The paper discusses the effect of the corner radius on the cutting forces and the surface finish in drilling with flat bottom drills. The typical differences in the cutting force are confirmed during the edge engagement. Then, the cutting force is simulated with a chip flow model, in which the chip flow angle is determined to minimize the cutting energy. The cylinder surface finishes and the burr formations are associated with the chip flow direction and the uncut chip thickness at the end of the lip.
