  Investigation on the influence of calcium Fluoride and Barium Fluoride on cutting performance during hard turning with minimal fluid application

  By P. Sam Paul, A S Varadarajan

  Abstract: Recently the concept of minimal fluid application has gained attention in metal cutting industry as it has the ability to resemble pure dry turning and at the same time free from all the problems related to large scale use of cutting fluid as in conventional wet turning. Since a very small quantity of cutting fluid is doing cooling and lubrication in minimal fluid application, there must be some performance enhancers …

  Effect of Fluid Viscosity and Iron-Fluid Composition on Damping Ability of Magnetorheological Damper during Hard Turning Process

  By P. Sam Paul, D. Madhan, R. Manikandan, Joyal Joseph

  Abstract: In manufacturing industry where metal cutting operation take place, tool vibration is an undesirable phenomenon which affects surface finish of the work piece, tool life and cause discomfort to human personal. In order to avoid tool vibration, the concept of magnetorheological (MR) damper was considered in this study. When a magnetic field is applied to the MR fluids, particle chains form and the fluid becomes a semisolid. This transition is …
