This paper investigates the use of Taguchi's method in order to identify the best drilling setup of glass reinforced polyamide.
Using a laboratory drilling setup, values of these indices were calculated for six different carbonate rocks in more than 20 different operational conditions.
Experimental work, using a laboratory drilling setup, was carried out to investigate the interplay between the various operational variables and the physico-mechanical properties of cement mortar, an analogue for natural rock.

"It's not a well that we would have drilled in that mechanical setup," said Marvin E. Odum, president of Shell.
Setup a drill for every weekend.
This setup, however, requires drilling holes through the specimen.
In a typical setup, hooks are drilled into the building at the edge of the window frame, pulleys are attached to the hooks and the lines — cotton, plastic, wire— are fed through.
