An analytical model results Drilling were obtained by writing a code in MATLAB @ 2010 software for aluminium alloy series such Aluminium alloys as Al 6061 Al 2014 and Al 7075. In an economic front developed mathematical models are Burr formation benefitted to reduce experimentation these results reveal that at the beginning of the drilled hole Thrust force due to indentation of chisel edge more thrust and torque .
