Abstract
Fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) show advantageous physical-mechanical, thermal, and dielectric characteristics, making them promising candidates for weight reduction in structural applications. However, machinability is often difficult because of the specificity of their structure. This paper highlights the latest advances in CFRP drilling. Key papers are analyzed with respect to workpiece materials, geometrical tool features, and input variables (such as variation in process parameters). The influence of tool geometry and process parameters on workpiece delamination and hole quality/integrity represents the primary focus of this review. In addition, some new data are presented and discussed.
