Abstract
The excellent mechanical and thermal properties of thermoplastic carbon fibre/polyetherketoneketone (CF/PEKK) composite has led to its increased utilisation in various manufacturing sectors, particularly in the aeronautical industry. However its machining performance, especially the performance under drilling, has rarely been reported. In this study, the drilling performance of CF/PEKK composite is investigated in detail. The effect of different feed rates on the resulting thrust force, machining temperature and delamination damage has been elucidated. Through monitoring of thrust force and machining temperature, the effect of thermo-mechanical interaction on the delamination damage formation was revealed. This study provides an important insight into the damage mechanism in drilling of CF/PEKK and can provide parametric guidance on practical drilling of such material in aircraft manufacturing industry.
