Abstract

Improving the surface quality of additive manufactured parts like poly lactic acid (+) is an important study that is currently being carried out by researchers. To reach the high-quality, different conventional and nonconventional methods are applied. In this study, the capability of ultrasonic vibration in drilling of an additive manufactured poly lactic acid (+)was examined. The process was implemented in two methods: conventional and vibratory drilling. Then, thrust force and chip type were analyzed, and the effect of them on surface roughness, delamination, circularity, and cylindricality have been investigated. As a result, it was indicated that lower thrust force and broken chips, which were generated in ultrasonic drilling, caused the surface quality parameters to be improved compared to the conventional method.
