Abstract

Drilling is a complex manufacturing process used for producing hole on engineering materials. Hole produced and followed by its quality parameters such as surface roughness and circularity to declare its quality. In this work, drilling process is carried out on titanium alloy using carbide drill. The input parameters considered in the work include cutting speed and feed rate and the output parameters include are surface roughness, circularity and diameter error. Three set of drilling process parameters are used to carry out experiments and the output parameters are measured by surface roughness tester and coordinate measuring machine. The result concluded that the feed rate and followed by cutting speed influencing the surface roughness, low circularity error is observed with higher cutting speed due to dynamic stability and also at higher cutting speed lower hole diameter error is observed due to reduced interfacial friction. This quality parameter analysis is used for increasing assembly accuracy of drilled hole.
