Titanium and its alloys (Ti) are attractive for many applications due to their superior properties.However, they are regarded as hard-to-machine materials. Drilling is an important machining process since it is involved in nearly all Ti applications. It is desirable to develop cost-effective drilling processes for Ti and/or improve the cost-effectiveness of currently-available processes. Such development and improvement will be benefited by a comprehensive literature review of drilling processes for Ti. This paper presents a literature review on mechanical drilling processes for Ti, namely, twist drilling, vibration assisted twist drilling, ultrasonic machining, and rotary ultrasonic machining. It discusses cutting force, cutting temperature, tool wear and tool life, hole quality (diameter and cylindricity, surface roughness, and burr), and chip type when drilling of Ti using these processes.

“…A theoretical material removal model in drilling advanced ceramics was established based on brittle fracture mode [6]. This model discussed the relationship between cutting parameters and material removal rate (MRR) but not predicted the drilling force model [7]. Pei et al [8] used rotary ultrasonic face machining first time and found the influence of the cutting depth, feed rate, and cutting tool on the machined surface quality and MRR.…”

“…In previous study and literature review [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17], it is found that there was main focus on machining ceramics and its related composite materials. The research work on rotary ultrasonic drilling of CFRP materials is rare especially on CFRP-T700.…”

Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) T700 have got increasing demand in the aerospace industry due to their high specific strength, specific stiffness, and other unique properties. Due to their inhomogeneous, anisotropic, and thermal properties, it is challenging to achieve desired accuracy and to avoid from delamination, chip-off, cracking, and burning especially in the drilling process. The cutting force is the critical parameter which is required to minimize in order to drill a hole with better accuracy and minimize defects. In this research, the brittle fracture approach was adopted and a cutting force model was developed for CFRP-T700 based on the rotary ultrasonic drilling (RUD) process. The experimental RUD was carried out on CFRP-T700 material and found that the feed rate and spindle speed are two main parameters that affect the cutting force in RUD. The cutting force data obtained from the model and experimental setup were then analyzed and found that there is small variation even below 10 % (max value of variation is 8.5 % and the average value is 0.49 %) between simulated and measured values. So, the developed cutting force model was validated and found robust. Also, it was found that with four times increase of feed rate, there is also an increase of material removal rate (MRR) four times with the decrease in the cutting force. Moreover, this model will be much helpful to keep cutting force within limits through the optimal set of parameters as feed rate and spindle speed without extensive experimentation of such costly materials.

“…Although the result of experiment shows this process has capability to produce the nanometer scale electrode, but the aspect-ratio of the electrode is still not large enough, and their wire materials are too soft that can not be widely adapted in the industry. Applications of Supersonic aided machining combined with other machining processes, such as turning, milling [12], EDM [13], ECM, CHM, grinding, and polishing, can provides better performance, where the removal rate is higher, the cutting force and the tool wear are reduced [11], the tool life and the machined surface roughness are improved, better fluid diffusion and propagation can be obtained by the disturbance of the supersonic [14].…”

Abstract-In this paper, a practical micromachining technology was applied for the fabrication of a micro probe using a complex nontraditional machining process. A series process was combined to machine tungsten carbide rods from original dimension. The original dimension of tungsten carbide rods was 3mm; the rods were ground to a fixed-dimension of 50µm using precision grinding machine in first step. And then, the rod could be machined to a middle-dimension of 20µm by electrolysis. A final desired micro dimension can be achieved using supersonic aided electrolysis. High-aspect-ratio of micro tungsten carbide rod was easily obtained by this process. Surface roughness of the sample with supersonic aided agitation was compared with that with no agitation in electrolysis. The machined surface of the sample is very smooth due to ionized particles of anode could be removed by supersonic aided agitation during electrolysis. Deep micro holes can also be achieved by the machined high-aspect-ratio tungsten carbide rod using EDM process. A micro probe of a ball shape at the end was processed by proposed supersonic aided electrolysis machining process.
