This paper is a study on the shaft behavior of BTA deep hole drilling tool. The dynamics of tool shaft are often taken to be that of a second order lumped mass system for other cutting processes. This simplification does not apply for deep hole drilling because of its shaft length and the fact of fluid coupling. This paper constructed the general equations of motion for the pipe-like fluid conveying tool shaft of deep hole drill. The proposed general equations can be reduced to different specific forms of former works. Solutions for lateral and longitudinal motions were given. Series of experiments were designed and performed. Comparisons between theoretical and experimental results confirmed the validity of the constructed equations. The studies disclosed build the knowledge about the tool shaft and pave the way for future research concerning the correlation between the tool shaft and cutting process taking place on the cutting head.
