Abstract

Composites are the materials in which more than one constituents combined microscopically to yield useful properties. These materials contain soft matrix and hard fibers. The machining processes like drilling has effect on mechanical properties of composite materials. In this paper, the optimization of drilling parameters (Cutting speed, Feed rate, Drill point angle)in drilling of CFRP composite specimen is done using Taguchi method, to have maximum value of surface finish of drilled hole.
