ABSTRACT

It is necessary to study the burr formation as it can costs upto 30% extra in deburring which
includes removing lubricants breaking the flow of material from operation. The following
work discusses methods for the determination of the burr dimensions to be expected in
drilling, simultaneously taking the parameters into consideration which influence the burr
formation. These parameters are forces and the geometry of the inserts. The method is
based on empirical cutting examinations and takes account into the correlation between
different burr parameters and the machining conditions such as cutting speed, feed and tool
geometry.
