Abstract

Drilling is an important process for making and assembling components made from Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP). Various processes like conventional drilling, vibration assisted drilling and ultrasonic assisted drilling have been attempted in order to maintain the integrity of the material and obtain the necessary accuracy in drilling of GFRP. This paper attempts to review the influence of machining parameter on the delamination damage of GFRP during drilling. In conventional machining feed rate, tool material and cutting speed are the most influential factor on the delamination hence machining at higher speed, harder tool material and lower feed rate have lesser delamination of the GFRP. Vibration assisted drilling and Ultrasonic assisted drilling have lesser thrust and hence lesser delamination compared to conventional drilling, which indicates that both vibration assisted drilling and Ultrasonic assisted drilling are more appropriate for drilling of GFRP.
