THE INFLUENCE OF COOLING FLUIDS TO ENERGY CONSUMPTION DURING TRANSVERSAL TURNING

Authors focus on an issue of cutting medium effect on possibilities to reduce energy consumption in a cutting process. The method was designed to monitor an energy consumption and factor of friction under different cutting media at turning. First, measured data was statistically processed and then, using software Mathematica this data was overlapped with surface and overlaid with a power - function selected machining parameters curve. Using neural networks method a simulation model is presented. It can give a conception of cutting media behavior when different parameters of machining are used, which were not an object of tests.
