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