Contraction of holes in composite post-drilling?
Contraction of holes in composite post-drilling?
(OP)
Does anyone have experience of this occuring?
We had a hole which wound up at diameter 5.75 mm after being created by sinking a 6 mm end-mill through a UD carbon/epoxy laminate.

From my own experience... have you checked the drills? maybe they are badly marked.
Other solution is that the worker has mistaken and didn´t tell you.
To me this is unprecedented.
Cheers.
