 abstract={In this article, compliance optimization with the steepest descent method of the hand drill bits shapes for metal drilling is presented. The analysis of stress, displacements and compliance of the solid with random shape can be performed using the finite element method. In the case of a high number of optimization iterations, each analysis needs automatic modifications of geometry, mesh and boundary conditions. The Open CASCADE library can be used in the fast and automatic construction of modified models. It allows for fast reanalysis for each derivative of the objective function in the optimization process. The motivation of this research is to fill the gap in the literature on drilling technology. Most of the contemporary research is devoted to the oil and gas industry, while optimization of the hand drill bits used in metal drilling is rare. Compliance optimization allows us to find the shape which guarantees a greater stiffness for the specified loading conditions and a given amount of material. Although the obtained compliance was low, further experimental research would be needed to apply new solutions in drilling practice. This will involve the construction of the drill bit tips and the development of a heat treatment process},
