| Abstract | ||||
| The main purpose of this research paper is to study experimentally the effects of the thermal friction drilling process parameters such as the tool geometry, feed rate, and rotational speed, on the resultant bushing length, axial and radial forces, hole dimensional error, and roundness error, while drilling AISI 304 stainless steel sheets with different thicknesses using tungsten carbide tools. The experiments were conducted based on the design of experiments method. A test rig was manufactured at Showman Company ‒ Egypt to perform the experimental work, and the tools were offered by Flow drill Company ‒ Netherlands. Also Fuzzy Logic technique is applied to the obtained results to find the optimal drilling condition | ||||
