Built-up edge reduction in drilling of AISI ۱۰۴۵ steel

چکیده مقاله

In this study, a combined drilling method consists of ultrasonic-assisted drilling (UAD) under the presence of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), is evaluated. Effect of this method on machinability factors is investigated by implementation of a dynamometer and a vision-measuring microscope. Then the results are compared with the values obtained in conventional drilling, and separately UAD and MQL-drilling. As a result, it was revealed that the output parameters were significantly improved when combined MQL– UAD method was exerted. In particular, built-up edge and drill skidding have almost been eliminated. Moreover, it was shown that increase of tool rake angle and producing broken chips caused thrust force and surface roughness to be reduced in UAD and UAD–MQL. In the combined strategy, burr-less hole has been achieved due to the formation of solid burr at the exit surface of drilled hole.
