Experimental studies of hole drilling operations in stress-strain workpiecematerial

Abstract

Drilling holes is one of the most common operations in the part production. Consequently, increasing the efficiency of this process is an urgent task. To improve the efficiency of the drilling process, the South- West University developed a method of drilling for pre-stressed and prestrained workpiece material, which requires a sample to be subjected to elastic strain under load not exceeding the proportionality limit of the workpiece material. That is, when the load is removed, the dimensions of the workpiece remain unchanged. The paper presents the experimental device designed to determine the axial force and torque when drilling holes in the stress-strain workpiece material. Multi-factor experiments were carried out to obtain empirical dependences of the axial force and torque arising in drilling holes in the stress-strain workpiecematerial on the process parameters.
