Chip root analysis after machining carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) at different fiber orientations
(2014)Procedia CIRP ~ 6th CIRP International Conference on High Performance Cutting, HPC2014Machining carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) is currently being heavily investigated. The main drivers come from the aviation and automotive industry. Current drilling and milling tool geometries exhibit immense wear resulting in the damage of the work piece. Detailed understanding of chip formation mechanisms when machining CFRP is paramount and enables the optimization of tool geometries in terms of tool lifetime and work piece ...Conference Paper -
Analysis of Material Weakening in CFRP after a Drilling Operation
(2014)Procedia CIRP ~ New Production Technologies in Aerospace Industry - 5th Machining Innovations Conference (MIC 2014)Drilling Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) induces different material defects like delamination, burnt matrix material, rough bore channel surfaces, fibre pull-out and uncut fibres. Intensive research has been conducted to analyse the amount of defects caused, describing the surface and subsurface defects introduced by machining operations [1], [2]. Additionally, the mechanical strength of rivet joints has been analysed intensively ...Conference Paper
