Effects of Nozzle Design and Tool Rotational Speed on MQLPerformance in Machining of Aerospace Materials.

Minimum Quantity lubrication (MQL) is a new technology used nowadays in machining

processes and is very promising for near dry machining. Compared to dry machining and

flood machining processes MQL has clear economical and ecological advantages. However,

MQL implementation is still applied using a trial and error approach.

Limited research work has been done on evaluating the effect of MQL on product quality,

especially, in aerospace materials (composites and difficult to cut materials like

Inconel).Therefore an extensive study is critically needed for understanding and optimization

of MQL application in machining of aerospace materials thereby increasing the applicability of

the technique.

In this project, an experimental investigation will be carried out to evaluate the performance of

two MOL systems in machining of aerospace materials for external supply. This will help in

understanding the parameters of MOL and thereby optimizing the effect of these parameters

on the cutting forces, temperature, tool wear, surface roughness, which affect the product

integrity and mechanical performance…………………………………
