Influence of various cutting fluids on energy consumption during turning

Abstract

© 2016 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. In this paper an experiment was carried out to examine the magnitude of differences among cutting fluids and their influence on lathe power consumption during machining. It was discovered that there is no universal cutting fluid. An attempt was made to study the possibility of Artificial Neural Network to model the behavior function for all cutting fluids. This could be used as a foundation for later database building where it would be possible to predict how certain cutting fluid will behave in a specific machining parameter combination.
