Introduction
This technology is very compact and can be used on every conventional machine tool
In order to guide the experiments a dimensionless approach has been used to choose the cutting conditions and vibratory tool holder properties.
This approach permits the number of tests to be reduced, since the machining process can be entirely described with only three dimensionless parameters instead of nine physical parameters
Objectives
To show the benefits of self excited vibratory drilling technology
To show how the dimensionless parameters approach makes the setting up of the process easier.
Self excited vibratory drilling
Chips are naturally fragmented to small pieces implying that there is no need to perform the stripping operations classically used to split up chips.
The friction of chip on the manufactured hole surface is limited which leads to improved hole quality.

Dynamic drilling models
Basis of the theory of self-excited vibratory drilling
In conventional drilling, the uncut chip thickness measured in the spindle axis direction is equal to the feed rate (h0) divided by number of lips (Z) i.e. h0/Z
In vibratory drilling this thickness is modified by the deflection of the drill holder
h = h0/2 + ώ(t) – ώ(t – 1/fz) ………….3
mώ(t) + cώ(t) + kώ(t) = Z.kc.R [h0/2 + ώ(t) – ώ(t – 1/fz)]q …………………………………4
ώ0 = kc/k. Z1-q R h0q ………………….5
Limits of the theory to predict optimal vibratory conditions
The use of linear solving method does not make it possible to describe strongly the non-linear vibratory motion that exists in the unstable field.
The ploughing phenomenon, which occurs near the centre of drill, is not taken into account, which acts like damper of vibration, when the vibration frequency becomes increasingly important in front of rotational frequency.
Dimensionless approach
The field of investigation has been reduced by grouping all the physical parameters into three dimensionless parameters
Dimensionless stiffness K=kc/k
Dimensionless frequency F=f0/fz
Damping ratio Z=2c/√km
Advantages of Dimensionless Approach
It allows starting from an identified satisfactory set, the new characteristics of the vibratory drill holder for a new diameter, a new spindle speed, or a new material to be determined quickly.
Moreover, this approach is only slightly affected by imperfections or gaps in the model.
