Abstract:

Surface roughness and tool wear is major problem in metal cutting and fitting industries in now a day. In turning process, tool wear can create parts that are out-of-size and cause tool failure also. The repetition of machining work that subjects on the tool tip interface to a range of cutting cooling medium to comparatively evaluate their effect on tool life. The efficiency of cutting tools can be finding based on some parameters such as flank wear, surface roughness on the work piece, cutting forces developed and temperature developed at the tool chip interface. The objective of this research work is to determine the effects of types of cooling medium used on tool wear and surface roughness during turning of SS 305 and medium-carbon steel EN8, cold drawn high temperature with Tin Coated HSS tool. By using oil based coolant, water, and air as the coolant on the turning process, the three types of coolant are compared to find the most effective coolant which resulting the less tool wear will be the optimum coolant for the materials using in this research work By comparing the three coolants that is oil, water, and air to determine which one would be the most effective coolant for efficient surface roughness and heat removal from the cutting tool. Then, we will compare the three coolants by using the Mitutoyo surface roughness tester (SJ-210P) which is having a LC of 0.001 µm. The types of coolants will be selected from the metal cutting industries using them rapidly with regard to the performance indexes such as surface roughness and less tool wear on the cutting tool. Finally, the research work concludes with a summary of this study and future scope
