Fibre/matrix delamination is a common problem when cutting carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) that can have a detrimental effect on workpiece mechanical properties and hence compromise the in-service performance of the composite part. The present... Read More about The effect of peel ply layer on hole integrity when drilling carbon fibre-reinforced plastic.
