The enormous use of cutting fluid in machining leads to an increase in machining costs, along with different health hazards. Cutting fluid can be used efficiently using the MQL (minimum quantity lubrication) method, which aids in improving the machining performance. This paper contains multiple responses, namely, force, surface roughness, and temperature, so there arises a need for a multicriteria optimization technique. Therefore, in this paper, multiobjective optimization based on ratio analysis (MOORA), VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR), and technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) are used to solve different multiobjective problems, and response surface methodology is also used for optimization and to validate the results obtained by multicriterion decision-making technique (MCDM) techniques. The design of the experiment is based on the Box–Behnken technique, which used four input parameters: feed rate, depth of cut, cutting speed, and nanofluid concentration, respectively. The experiments were performed on AISI 304 steel in turning with minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) and found that the use of hybrid nanofluid (Alumina–Graphene) reduces response parameters by approximately 13% in forces, 31% in surface roughness, and 14% in temperature, as compared to Alumina nanofluid. The response parameters are analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), where the depth of cut and feed rate showed a major impact on response parameters. After using all three MCDM techniques, it was found that, at fixed weight factor with each MCDM technique, a similar process parameter was achieved (velocity of 90 m/min, feed of 0.08 mm/min, depth of cut of 0.6 mm, and nanoparticle concentration of 1.5%, respectively) for optimum response. The above stated multicriterion techniques employed in this work aid decision makers in selecting optimum parameters depending upon the desired targets. Thus, this work is a novel approach to studying the effectiveness of hybrid nanofluids in the machining of AISI 304 steel using MCDM techniques.

Cutting fluid plays a cooling-lubrication role in the cutting of metal materials. However, the substantial usage of cutting fluid in traditional flood machining seriously pollutes the environment and threatens the health of workers. Environmental machining technologies, such as dry cutting, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), and cryogenic cooling technology, have been used as substitute for flood machining. However, the insufficient cooling capacity of MQL with normal-temperature compressed gas and the lack of lubricating performance of cryogenic cooling technology limit their industrial application. The technical bottleneck of mechanical—thermal damage of difficult-to-cut materials in aerospace and other fields can be solved by combining cryogenic medium and MQL. The latest progress of cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication (CMQL) technology is reviewed in this paper, and the key scientific issues in the research achievements of CMQL are clarified. First, the application forms and process characteristics of CMQL devices in turning, milling, and grinding are systematically summarized from traditional settings to innovative design. Second, the cooling-lubrication mechanism of CMQL and its influence mechanism on material hardness, cutting force, tool wear, and workpiece surface quality in cutting are extensively revealed. The effects of CMQL are systematically analyzed based on its mechanism and application form. Results show that the application effect of CMQL is better than that of cryogenic technology or MQL alone. Finally, the prospect, which provides basis and support for engineering application and development of CMQL technology, is introduced considering the limitations of CMQL.

Silicon carbide fiber reinforced silicon carbide ceramic matrix composite (SiCf/SiC composite) is characterized by a high strength-to-density ratio, high hardness, and high temperature resistance. However, due to the brittleness of the matrix material and the anisotropy of the reinforcing phase, it is a huge challenge for machining of the material. The milling method has advantages of a high material removal rate and applicability to complex surface geometry. However, no published literature on milling of SiCf/SiC composite has been found up to now. In this paper, high-speed milling of SiCf/SiC composites was carried out under dry conditions and cryogenic cooling using liquid nitrogen, respectively. Polycrystalline diamond (PCD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) diamond cutting tools were used for the milling work. The cutting performance of the two kinds of tools in high-speed milling of SiCf/SiC composites was studied. Tool failure modes and mechanisms were analyzed. The effects of the cooling approach on tool wear and machined surface quality were also investigated. The experimental results showed that under identical cutting parameters and cooling approaches, the PCD tool yielded better cutting performance in terms of a longer tool life and better surface quality than that of the CVD diamond tool. In dry machining, the failure modes of the CVD diamond tool were a large area of spalling on the rake face, edge chipping and severe tool nose fracture, whereas for the PCD tool, only a small area of spalling around the tool nose took place. Compared to the dry machining, the wear magnitudes of both PCD and CVD diamond tools were decreased in cryogenic machining. Additionally, the surface quality also showed significant improvements. This study indicates that the PCD tool is highly suitable for machining of SiCf/SiC composite, and that the cryogenic method can improve machining efficiency and surface quality.
