This paper presents an analysis for the prediction of thrust force in drilling of aluminium-based composites, reinforced with boron-carbide B4C produced with the powder-metallurgy (PM) technique. The formulation was derived on experimental bases. The experiments were conducted with various cutting tools and parameters on conditions of dry machining in a computer numerical control (CNC) vertical machining centre. The thrust forces were obtained by measuring the forces between the drill bit and the work pieces during the experiments. In the experiments, particle fraction, feed rate, spindle speed and drill bit type were used as input parameters, and thrust force was the output data for the gene expression programming (GEP) software. Customizing for formulation in order to describe the problem was generated by GEP, and it was analysed from different perspectives and verified the reliability of equation.
