Effect of machining parameters on the tool wear in drilling of 3D PF C/C composite
Abstract: Carbon–carbon (C/C) composites are broadly used in aerospace, defence, shipbuilding, chemical, and nuclear industries owing to their high strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios. However, they are brittle, anisotropic and non-homogeneous in nature, making them difficult to machine. Incorrect machining parameters can cause defects such as burrs, delamination, and fibre bundles pullout. This paper aims to study the hole surface and tool wear during drilling of 3D pierced fabric (PF) carbon-carbon (C/C) …
