One serious problem in deep-hole drilling is the formation of a dynamic disturbance called spiralling which causes holes with several lobes. Since such lobes are a severe impairment of the bore hole the formation of spiralling has to be prevented. Gessesse et al. (1994) explain spiralling by the...

In this paper we present how statistical experimental design, time series analysis and non-linear dynamic models have been applied to gain a deeper insight into BTA-deep-hole drilling process. BTA-deep-hole drilling process is used to produce long holes of a length to diameter ratio larger than...

One serious problem in deep hole drilling is the occurrence of a dynamic disturbances called spiralling. A common explanation for the occurrence of spiralling is the coincidence of time varying bending eigenfrequencies of the tool with multiples of the spindle rotation frequency. We propose a...
