Fiber-reinforced composites have established as a high-performance composite of modern advanced structures in various sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and marine industries. Non-conventional machining processes are preferred for the ease of manufacturing operations, which incorporates the machining of high strength and anisotropic material. Non-conventional manufacturing processes produce complicated shaped profiles and better surface characteristics. Abrasive water jet (AWJ) machining is an emerging technology that offers an excellent alternative among the various advanced machining processes due to its process capabilities and excellent machining quality. AWJ machining has fascinated immense attention in the fields of fiber-reinforced composite materials to produce intricate industrial components and attracted the researchers and production industries. It has become well-known in all key areas of researches. Over the past 30 years, lots of research work has been carried out to describe the machining performances among the studied process parameters. This paper reviews the research progresses and integrated functions of AWJ machining in terms of mechanism and machining performances, which includes aspects such as mathematical modeling and optimization. AWJ machining procedure and performance capability are reviewed and depicted in detail. Also, a comprehensive conclusion of this review, along with future perspective, is explored subsequently. The current review work will help future researchers for the proper selection of different FRP material composite compositions and AWJ machining parameters to achieve better performances. The collection of this review literature will also support the production operations in the future.

Composite materials have taken an imperative place in the material system because of their unique performance in various specialized applications. Fiber inclusion and the heterogeneous property of composites make it more difficult to machine with the conventional machining process. However, several nonconventional methods have been adopted for machining composites, in which abrasive water jet machining (AWJM) was proven to be more effective and a preferable technique in machining of fiber-reinforced composite material. This review article is intended to highlight and categorize the machining performance of the fiber-reinforced composites on machining with AWJM process.

Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) is used in top industries like aerospace, automotive or medicine. Abrasive water jet (AWJ) technology has demonstrated its capacity in machining CFRP parts with a high dimensional accuracy due to its low mechanical loading, reduced machining temperature, high productivity, reduced tooling, and environmental friendliness. An important challenge when machining composite materials with AWJ is material delamination, determined by the high-speed water jet hitting the material during the piercing process. It is the ideal tool for cutting complex CFRP parts, in cases where the piercing point is outside of the workpiece. The challenge lies in machining features where material piercing is required, like holes, slots or internal contours. This paper presents a method of piercing the composite materials with abrasive water jet, that can avoid delamination. The method requires adding the abrasive particles in the water jet at the very beginning of jet formation, thus obtaining a mixed abrasive water jet during the first impact with the composite workpiece. A new cutting system was designed and set up based on the proposed piercing method and was compared with a conventional AWJ cutting system. The insertion of the abrasive particles into the water jet was monitored by using acoustic emission (AE). An analysis of the influence of piercing parameters (water pressure, standoff distance, abrasive inlet angle and abrasive delay time) on the delamination was conducted. The process outcomes such as hole surface integrity, delamination, particles embedment, uncut fibers and dimensional characteristics, were evaluated. The results show that the method is promising in reducing delamination.
