Dry drilling of composite/metallic stacks for aircraft components is extremely difficult to keep sufficient hole quality and efficiency of drilling process. Problems of the dry drilling of the stacks are chip ejection, chip formation and high temperature especially for titanium alloy. To clear these problems, low-frequency vibration (10-50Hz) drilling is proposed in this study. Controlled vibration was given in drill axis direction. The relationship between vibration conditions, such as vibration amplitude, frequency and drill feed rate, and chip formation and drilling temperature were investigated. As a result, low-frequency vibration drilling can control chip formation to reduce chip jamming and reduce drilling temperature. The temperature at cap burr decreased by 300 degrees or more when low-frequency vibration was applied compared with the conventional drilling.
