Abstract
The paper aims at evaluating the impact of technological parameters of a drilling process on the parameter of surface roughness Rz (maximum height of roughness profile) of wood-based material (WPC – Wood Plastic Composite). During drilling with tools 3.0, 5.0 and 7.0 mm in diameter, the spindle speed nc and feed rate f were changed. The evaluation of statistical significance was performed using the ANOVA mathematical tool (two-way with repetition). Using a simple conversion, it is possible to assess which of the set parameters affects the final surface quality, which serves as supporting information for the work of an engineer. Keywords: statistical evaluation, composite, surface texture
