Effect of abandonment of cooling and lubrication on surface roughness and cylindricity in turning of steel

Abstract

One of the defining global issues today is to reduce the load on the environment. Thus, in this paper, the effect, and consequences of the abandonment of cooling and lubrication were investigated when turning of non-alloyed steel. The 2D and 3D surface roughness parameters, cylindricity deviations and circularity errors were examined at different feeds and cutting speeds. The experiments were performed, using the full factorial experimental design method. It was found that with dry machining, the average roughness is slightly higher with increasing productivity, however, at lower feed and cutting speeds, the surface has better wear resistance and lubricant retention, and cylindricity deviation can be minimized.

The Influence of Diamond Burnishing Process Parameters on Surface Roughness of Low-Alloyed Aluminium Workpieces

“…The appearance of new material qualities has led to the rise of new sectors and processes, and nowadays, during the fourth industrial revolution, a prominent role has been given to guaranteeing the best possible surface quality of manufactured parts [1]. Finishing operations have been developed that can productively provide ever-improving macro-and micro-geometric accuracy since different engineering industries have realized that the final dimensions, corrosion resistance and, in fact, proper operation of a machining part depends on the surface roughness [2][3][4], among other factors. In recent decades, more emphasis has been placed on non-chip removal technologies such as the cold plastic surface hardening processes.…”
