Abstract
Due to the environmental and health issues, there is an enormous
requirement for developing the novel cutting fluids (CFs). The
vegetable based cutting fluid (VBCFs) doesn’t affect the
environment, diminish the harmful effects to the operator and also
enhance the machining performances such as surface roughness, tool
life, minimum vibration and cutting forces. In this work, the
performances of four different VBCFs like palm, coconut, sunflower,
soya bean oils, and a commercial type of CFs were considered to
analyze the influence of cutting fluids while measuring the cutting
force and vibration signatures during milling of 7075–T6 hybrid
aluminium metal matrix composite with carbide insert tool. The
experiments were conducted in CNC L-MILL 55 vertical machining
center, with milling tool dynamometer to measure the cutting force
and a tri-axial accelerometer to measure the vibration signals. The
flow rate of the VBCFs were maintained at a constant rate and the
results were compared with a commercial cutting fluid. The obtained
result shows that palm oil suits better than the other vegetable
based cutting fluids in terms of minimum cutting force requirement
and minimum vibration. Also, the experimental result shows that the
cutting fluid was one of the important parameter needs to be
considered which influences the cutting force and vibration signals.
