Abstract

Different machining processes have been tested for their applicability when machining Glare, including drilling, milling, water-jet cutting and laser-jet cutting. For machining processes in general, three phenomena are important when a particular process is applied: the wear of the cutting tool, the delamination of the laminate, and the introduction of heat into the cutting tool and the laminate. Some changes in cutting tool geometry, tool material and machining procedures may be required for successful application of a particular machining process for Glare.

This chapter describes the milling and drilling process in more detail. The influence of lubrication, laminate thickness and other parameters is also discussed.
