The tests were conducted on a three-axis direct-drive turning center. The holes were drilled in cylindrical PA6 aluminum alloy specimens 30 mm in length and 30 mm in diameter using 6 mm Ø VHM HPC TiAlN-coated twist drill bits.

The requirements for the production of these elements apply not only to the geometry, but also to the quality of the surface obtained. This is particularly important in the aviation industry, where the durability of the threaded connection affects passenger safety.

The tests involved hole cutting under 27 different conditions using different values of the feed per revolution and spindle speed, and different types of kinematic system. The drilling was performed on a CTX Alpha 500 universal turning center using tools with internal coolant supply.
