Abstract
Natural fibre based composites are gaining more importance now-a-days due to their specific properties. The aim of this work is to present a comparison of machinability of jute fabric and glass fabric reinforced polymeric composite. Drilling was carried out in a Vertical Machining Centre using HSS twist drill of 6 mm diameter. The quality of hole is compared based on the delamination factor obtained by digital image processing technique, on both sides. Factorial design based experiments were conducted at different levels of speed and feed rate. Analysis Of Variance is done to study the influence of natural fibre on delamination. Results show that natural fibre reinforced composite has better machinability than synthetic fibre reinforced composite.
