In present scenario, Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics (GFRP) has found to be highly influential in the field of manufacture of automotive and aerospace parts due to its high strength and lightweight characteristics. Processed GFRP components are assembled to the main structure by means of mainly rivets and fasteners. So, drilling in a GFRP material becomes inevitable in manufacturing for its wide applications. The purpose of this experiment is to conduct a study of the effect of vibration on surface roughness while drilling a GFRP plate using a 10mm HSS drill. The experiment has been implemented by varying the drill speed and feed accordingly in a 10mm thick GFRP plate and the respective vibration and surface roughness results were obtained. Furthermore, the results obtained have been processed in Minitab to provide a comprehensive understanding. ANOVA has been performed to establish a relation between the vibrations developed and surface roughness of the hole.
