Popis: Helical milling is a hole making process by milling in which the center of end mill orbits around the center of the hole while spinning on its axis and feeding in the axial direction. This paper makes a comparison between drilling and helical milling in cutting forces, hole quality and tool wear through a series of experiments. The results show that the axial cutting force of helical milling is far less than that of drilling and the holes quality is also better than traditional drilling. Cutting tools show excellent machinability in helical milling.
