Abstract

Many researchers are trying to reduce the use of lubrication fluids in metal cutting to obtain safety, environmental and economical benefits. The aim of this study is to determine the optimization lubrication conditions in minimum quantity lubrication(MQL) turning of workpieces with taper angle. This study has been considered about various conditions of MQL. The objective functions are cutting force and surface roughness. Design factors are nozzle diameter, nozzle angle, MQL supply pressure, distance between tool and nozzle and length of supply line. The cutting force and surface roughness were statistically analyzed by the use of the Box-Behnken method. As a results, optimum lubrication conditions were suggested and verification experiment has been performed. The results of this study are expected to help the selection of lubrication conditions in MQL turning.
