Multi-spot optics are applied for process parallelizing if the demand on throughput in mass production rises or large areas of material have to be processed. We investigate the usage of microlens arrays as multifunctional elements for forming an arbitrary shaped laser beam into a spot-, a ring-spotor a line-array pattern. It can be shown that the intensity distribution of each spot is equal to ...

Abstract— Due to the superior physical and mechanical properties Glass fiber-reinforced (GFRP) composite materials are very attractive for applications like aerospace and air craft structural components. This results a large number of research papers on machining of these composite laminates. Out of all the machining operations, most commonly used operation is drilling. However, drilling operat...

Because neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery often require the drilling of bones, this paper attempts to solve the problem of bone drilling. The goal is to realize a control system, which is able to drill with a contact drilling force and can automatically stop drilling at the moment of breaking through. In particular, both the de drilling mntor control and the feed rate control are driven by fo...

Bone drilling is widely used in orthopaedics and surgery; it is a technically demanding surgical procedure. Recent technological improvements in this area are focused on efforts to reduce forces in bone drilling. This study focuses on forces and a torque required for conventional and ultrasonically-assisted tool penetration into fresh bovine cortical bone. Drilling tests were performed with two...

In this research, finite element analysis of the conventional drilling and vibration assisted drilling is carried out. The ABAQUS software is employed for FE analysis. The Johnson-Cook models for both plastic deformation and damage are employed for FE simulation.The results of the FE analysis are then verified with experimental results in both conventional and vibration assisted drilling on Al ...

drilling fluid is the most important lifeline of the drilling operation, that main task is facilitate the cuttings removal of the drilling. there are varieties of drilling fluids such as sodium bentonite based-drilling fluid is called “mud” and drilling foam or surfactant based-drilling fluid is called “soap”. the present work aims are study on the modified drilling mud properties by using the ...

The aim of this investigation is to devise a robust detection method for drill bit break-through when drilling into long bones using an automated drilling system that is associated with mechatronic assisted surgery. This investigation looks into the effects of system compliance and inherent drilling force fluctuation on the profiles of drilling force, drilling force, drilling between successive...

Due to the shortcomings of the traditional drilling way, as well as the complexity and difficult mathematical model of the drilling process, etc, this paper briefly analyses the principle of auto-drilling system on AC frequency conversion and the relationship among all factors that affects on the auto-drilling and puts forward a technology that combines parameters' self-tuning fuzzy control wit...

– World wide drilling is developing for oil, gas or water resources. Electric motors power 75% of the total drilling rigs installation, augmenting to 95% for the case of Romania. Monitoring diesel generators micro-power station and motors of the rig is the second important thing to do and complete the main task of drilling process monitoring. This paper describe a monitoring and control system ...

Drilling samples of lunar soil is an important and indispensable part of China’s lunar exploration project. The drill bit temperature during the drilling process is one of the key concerns for scholars, especially for the hard lunar rock drilling in vacuum. In this article, the simulation analysis of drilling in atmosphere and vacuum is conducted. Moreover, a fiber grating temperature measuring...
