Use of Vegetable Oil as Cutting Fluid in Turning of Mild Steel with MQL and Optimization of Cutting Parameter

Cutting fluids are mainly used in machining process as coolant to reduce the temperature at cutting zone and for the lubrication to avoid the friction between the work piece and tool .The current research involves the performance analysis in turning M.S bar in flood and MQL cutting scenario. Most of the industrial application mineral oil use as cutting fluid .the use of mineral oil is hazards to living condition .cutting fluid which are used in industry today is toxic and costly unhealthy for worker and environment .damping of cutting oil is most problematic subject to the industry . Denigration of cutting fluid also lead to economical advantage of saving recycling of cutting fluid, corrosion and erosion of work piece .In this project vegetable oil used as cutting fluid and effect on cutting forces, surface roughness and temperature of work piece is analyses with application of minimum quantity lubrication system .flow rate of mql kept 50 ml and flow rate for flood cooling 500 ml. Low budget carbide tipped single point cutting tool is used .optimize the cutting parameter with help RSM
