Abstract
This paper presents the prediction and evaluation of thrust force in drilling of carbon composite material. In order to extend tool life and improve quality of hole drilling, a better understanding of uncoated and coated tool behaviors is required. This paper describes the development of a phenomenological model between the thrust force, the drilling parameters and the tool wear. The experimental results indicate that the feed rate, the cutting speed and the tool wear are the most significant factors affecting the thrust force. The model can then be used for tool-wear monitoring. The model presented here is verified by experimental tests.
