This study aims to address the challenges of high-speed machining in glass-fiber-reinforced composites and obtains the optimal drilling parameters combination through the Grey Entropy Fuzzy method.
The machining of glass-fiber-reinforced composites is complex due to their heterogeneous structures. Research has indicated that high-speed machining, at high spindle speeds and feed rates, not only increases productivity but also reduces drilling defects, such as delamination. However, there are several challenges with high-speed machining, such as the heat generated during drilling between the drill tool and chip contact surfaces that can result in hole size errors. Therefore, it is essential to determine the optimum drilling parameters. This paper presents an innovative hybrid optimization approach called Grey Entropy Fuzzy. This approach is a combination of entropy-based weight integrated Grey Relation analysis and fuzzy logic. With the consideration of all responses simultaneously, an optimum machining combination was obtained at a spindle speed of 12,000 rpm and a feed rate of 0.02 mm/rev using a drill bit with a point angle of 118 degrees and a drill diameter of 6 mm.
