The Techniques Employed in Milling of CFRP to Reduce Material Damages

Abstract

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites are extensively used in aircraft industries because of high strength (load-bearing material). In application, machining process required near net shape for avoiding rejection of components and it is highly challenging and hard to produce good quality holes and surface. In this article, reviewing various techniques which involved to bring good surface finish in milling of CFRP composites and addresses machining parameters, tool geometry, material, coatings and environmental condition techniques. This current review work will be helpful for researchers to implement new advanced techniques to avoid material damages in their future work.
