Drilling is one of the most common manufacturing processes in various industries like automobile industry, Aerospace industry, watch manufacturing industry and medical industries. It plays an important role for quality of manufactured product. For assembly of product drilling, boring, reaming process are used. Many input drilling parameters are feed rate, spindle speed, drill diameter, cutting fluid, depth of cut, work piece material, tool material, helix angle, point angle, clearance angle, types of tool, etc. The performance parameters for drilling are Material removal rate, surface roughness, thrust force, torque, tool life, etc. This paper illustrates a literature review on effect of drilling drilling process parameters such as feed rate, drill diameter, spindle speed on thrust force. The thrust force is calculated by the force sensor or dynamo meter. In this paper it studied that the feed rate and spindle speed are the significant factor for thrust force.
