Study on Carbon Fiber Composite Materials Cutting Tools

Article Preview

Abstract:

With the carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) materials more and more widely being used in aviation, aerospace and other industries, the study of the secondary processing technology of composite materials is paid attention by scholars from home and abroad. Because the composite materials has characteristics such as high hardness, high strength, light weight, anisotropic and etc, it is easy to produce hierarchical, tearing, burrs, drawing, the collapse of block and other defects in the machining process, so it belongs to a typical difficult-to-machine materials. Firstly the type and characteristics of carbon fiber composite materials were analyzed. Basing on the basic principles of composite material machining the carbon fiber composite machining defects were analyzed, and the design and optimization suggestions of the carbon fiber composite cutting tool were put forward according to its machining characteristics. The tool solutions of the drilling problems of carbon fiber composites in different areas currently facing were explored. Under the basis of theoretical research and analysis, a new type of PCD tool was designed and developed and through comparing test the optimal edge was got. Through experimental research the tool geometry parameters and cutting parameters which were suitable for machining were analyzed, and the tool life problems were analyzed too. All these laid a foundation to realize carbon fiber composite materials cutting of high efficiency and high quality.
