In-situ hybrid metal matrix composites were prepared by reinforcing AA6061 aluminium alloy
with 10 wt.% of boron carbide (B4C) and 0 wt.% to 6 wt.% of mica. Machinability of the hybrid …

We propose a method for detecting the boundaries of the cutting edge and flank surface of
helical drills. To implement the proposed method, the drill is installed in a rotating holder on …

The integrity of machined holes depends on many parameters, some of which are related to
the cutting tool (geometry, coating, material). Other influential parameters are related to the …

Generally, parts are rejected during drilling operation due to low quality drilled holes and
improper selection of process parameters such as feed rate and spindle speed. The current …

This paper is devoted to the development of a numerical approach that allows quick
detection of the conditions favorable for the beginning of noticeable vibrations during …

Dry machining is one of the main ways to reduce the environmental burden of the machining
process and reduce the negative effect of the cutting fluid and aerosols on operators. In …

Despite the growth of composites and other lightweight materials, aluminium alloys remain
an attractive choice for the aerospace industry due to their distinct manufacturing processes …
