Abstract
Straightness is one of the key technical indicators for deep hole gun drilling. This work studies the effect of drill shaft support misalignment on hole straightness in relation to various control factors. Misalignments occur in machine spindles, intermediate supports and pilot bushings. A predictive hole straightness deviation model for multi-support deep hole drilling process is introduced using the Euler column theory. The model considers the effect of the misalignment of whip guides in addition to the effects of the varying distance among the supports. The model also takes into account the effects of the thrust force and the drill lengths. Through simulation, this work analyzes the effect of each control factor on the results and optimizes the setting for each control factor. Further experiments on Ti6Al4V alloy then verify these estimates. Through research, fixed support at chip box has a greater influence on straightness deviation as compared to the misalignment at other supports; the distance between supports nearer to the chip box has more control on straightness deviation as compared to the other support distances.
