Experimental investigation into machining of hastelloy C-276 during different cooling environments

Experimental Investigation and Performance Optimization during Machining of Hastelloy C-276 Using Green Lubricants

“…Investigations on the forces, SR and tool damage during the machining of Inconel 800 alloy utilizing vegetable-based oil amalgamated with aluminum oxide nano particles employed ANOVA analysis, a CDA approach, Box–Cox plot and normal probability graph and concluded that vegetable-based nano-fluid MQL cooling enhanced machining performance [ 32 ]. Examinations on the difficult to cut materials require low temperature cooling system to enhance machining capability and the input variable have impact on the performance [ 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 ]. Research on eco-friendly cutting fluids for sustainable cooling techniques suggested the use of the MQL system along with vegetable-based oil, nano fluids and cryogenic cooling as an alternative to the conventional cooling system.…”

“…However, the concept of a circular economy or 3R ( Figure 8 ) pertains to reducing waste, recycling it and then utilizing it again to have zero waste at last. The studies [ 1 , 22 , 34 ] focused on the machining performance of Hastelloy under dry, flood and MQL cooling conditions, but are lacking with reference to the investigations of different categories of lubricants and their impact on surface roughness, temperature and chip reduction coefficient along with valid statistical analysis. Thus, in this work examination has been conducted on the turning of Hastelloy C-276 using different oils, such as synthetic, waste and soybean oils, so as to investigate their suitability as a lubricant in MQL-assisted machining.…”
