Evaluation of Tool Wear Suppressive Ability of Lubricants Usein in Minimum Quantity Lubrication Application in High Speed Machining of Cast Aluminum Alloys

The disadvantages of conventional metalworking fluids such as disposal problems, health problems and economic factors have led to the development of strategies to reduce their amount in metalworking. Recently, Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) technology was developed and it seems to be a suitable alternative for economically and environmentally compatible production. It combines the functionality of lubrication with an extremely low …
