This is caused by their excellent relationship weight/machanical properties. Although there is high trend to apply and develop non-conventional technologies and methods for machinig CF and MMC, other common machining processes are commonly applied for working these materials. Thus, in aeronautical industry, mechanical drilling processes are usually applied for preparing the manufactured elements to be assembled. However, drilling of CF based materialscan carry on troubes related to a loss of Surface finishing quality and/or quick and high toolo wear. This work reports on the results about an evaluation process of the Surface quality of drilled CF samples as a funcition of the cutting conditions and the tool materials.}, organization = {The development of this work has been sopported by the Spanish Goverment, Project DPI 2008-06771-C04-01 and by the Andalusian Goverment.}, publisher = {Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland}, keywords = {Sustainable Manufacturing.}, keywords = {Composites.}, keywords = {Drilling.}, keywords = {Surface Quality.}, keywords = {Delamination.}, title = {Low environmental impact machining processes of composite materials applied to the aerospace sector}, doi = {10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.107.15}, author = {Álvarez Alcón, Miguel and Batista Ponce, Moisés and Salguero Gómez, Jorge and Sánchez Carrilero, Manuel and Marcos Bárcena, Mariano}, }
