- Abstract
The utilization of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer/plastic (CFRP) components is primarily limited due to the lack of high-quality and least damage-based hole constructing technology. In this study, the delamination defect is investigated at the exit of CFRP drilling by a novel three-dimensional simulation model considering heat accumulation effect. The validity of the model is confirmed through experimental data of CFRP boreholes: surface temperature distribution at the borehole outlet, drilling axial force, and delamination factor at the outlet. The model exhibited high accuracy in theoretical analysis of CFRP 3D drilling with/without temperature. Additionally, the variation in temperature field and corresponding delamination damage is analyzed through simulation of CFRP drilling process at the exit plane of a hole. Results indicate that delamination damage occurs during unsupported dry drilling when half of the length of the main cutting edge impale the workpiece after reaching its exit plane. The changes in axial force caused delamination under different processing parameters, and a quantitative relationship is established through multiple regression analysis. The appropriate processing parameters can effectively reduce delamination during CFRP drilling. Specifically, accurate measures can ensure sufficient heat conduction and minimize heat accumulation during the formation stages of exit-related delamination. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
