Summary

A drill spindle with multi-layer construction to minimize vibration is proposed, and the performance of an extremely slender drill spindle made by this method is reported. The spindle consists of an outer pipe and inner rod. The gap between the pipe and the rod is filled with thin adhesive set in place under pressure so that the rigidity of the spindle is hardly compromised. Drill bits were installed at the tops of the spindles. The outer diameter of the pipes was 10mm and the overall length of the spindles 290mm. Various spindles with different gap dimensions and different types of adhesive were made and the performance of each was tested and compared. It was found that a spindle with a 0.1mm gap filled with silicon resin adhesive best absorbed vibration energy and that vibration was drastically reduced over a wide range of cutting speed.
