【 摘 要 】

This article presents an attempt to solve the problem of the formation of burrs and drilling caps in the process of drilling in difficult-to-cut materials, specifically in the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. In order to eliminate these phenomena, a chamfer of specific length and angle was made on FANAR drill’s margin. Taguchi and ANOVA methods were used to plan and analyze the experiment aimed at determining the optimal geometry of the modified drill. Chamfer with a length of 2 mm and an angle of 10° was selected. In the next stage of research, the values of cutting forces and burr heights obtained during drilling with the original and modified drill were compared for three different feed rate values. It turned out that the introduced changes significantly reduced both the axial cutting force (22–23%) and the height of burrs (10–22%) and caused the complete elimination of the presence of drilling caps. Additionally, a positive correlation between the cutting force and the burr size was found.
