DEVELOPMENT OF FUNCTIONAL PROTOTYPE OF STEEL PDC DRILL BIT BODY BY USING 3D PRINTING TECHNIQUE AND INVESTMENT CASTING
The project focuses on the fabrication of Polycrystalline Diamond Compact (PDC) drill bit prototype for industrial drilling testing to conform the previous study of the particular drill bit. The new designated drill bit had successfully shown an improvement rate of penetration through multi-layer fo...
