Abstract

An investigation of pre-drilling effects on tap performance is developed in a statistical framework. Results of extensive steel machining experiments are presented in terms of observations on drill wear and tap lifetime. Work-hardening is also discussed. A tool life criterion for worn drill replacement aimed at internal threading process optimisation is proposed and illustrated by a case-study.
