Abstract

Delamination is the major defect occurs during drilling process of composite materials. In this paper, it has been studied the effect of spindle speed and feed rate on delamination factor during drilling carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite using HSS drill tool. Taguchi design is  used to optimized the effect of these parameters using MiniTab 17 software. It concluded that feed rate is more effective than spindle speed on drilling CFRP composite. The optimum experiment was no.13 with minimum delamination factor 1.223 at spindle speed 1273 rpm and feed rate 0.05 mm/rev.
