Delamination analysis after carbon/epoxy plate drilling
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of laminate composites in structures is under a considerable increase. The advantages of their use are related with a considerable weight reduction and consequent improvement of dynamic characteristics, in the case of aeronautics, automobile, railway and naval industries. Drilling is a widely used technique as it is always needed to assemble components in more complex structures. Drilling is a complex process which is characterized by the existence of “extrusion” and cutting mechanisms, the former performed by drill chisel edge that has null or very small linear speed and the latter by the existence of rotating cutting lips at a certain speed.

Evaluation of Delamination Damage on Composite Plates using an Artificial Neural Network for the Radiographic Image Analysis
Drilling carbon/epoxy laminates is a common operation in manufacturing and assembly. However, it is necessary to adapt the drilling operations to the drilling tools correctly to avoid the high risk of delamination. Delamination can severely affect the mechanical properties of the parts produced. Production of high quality holes with minimal damage is a key challenge. In this paper, delamination...
متن کاملDamage Evaluation of Drilled Carbon/epoxy Laminates Based on Area Assessment Methods
The characteristics of carbon fibre reinforced laminates had widened their use, from aerospace to domestic appliances. A common characteristic is the need of drilling for assembly purposes. It is known that a drilling process that reduces the drill thrust force can decrease the risk of delamination. In this work, delamination assessment methods based on radiographic data are compared and correl...

Fibre reinforced plastics are increasing their importance as one of the most interesting groups of material on account of their low weight, high strength and stiffness. To obtain good quality holes, it is important to identify the type of material, ply stacking sequence and fibre orientation. In this paper, the drilling of quasi-isotropic hybrid carbon+glass/epoxy plates is analyzed. Two commer...
