Machining Challenges of Polymer Matrix Composites

Numerous sectors benefit from the usage of fiber-reinforced composite materials for structural purposes. Delamination is regarded as the main issue in the production of the components. In the production process, drilling is frequently utilized in materials have an impact on chip deformation and drilling behavior. By carefully choosing the tool, method, and operating circumstances, both conventional and unconventional drilling procedures are capable of producing small holes for composite materials. This article reviews the approach to drilling composite material without delamination. The main scenes are shown, along with the analytical approach’s elements and the application of unique drill bits in practice. The current review is to maximize the process variables, particularly the drilling process’s cutting parameters and milling of various types of polymers reinforced with different fibres. The acquired experimental data were examined using analysis of variance (ANOVA).
