The effect of a lubricant on tool-workpiece interface.

Abstract

"The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of cutting fluids and the method of application to an orthogonal cutting process.

The cutting operation was performed on a lathe. The fluids use d were compressed air and a solution of emulsifiable oil and water.

The flooding of the area was produced by directing a copious supply of fluid over the cutting a rea. The directed stream was obtained by pumping the fluid through a small hole drilled into the tool holder, immediately above and behind the tool face, which directed the fluid at the tool-chip interface.

The results obtained indicated that the latter method require d less power f or the cutting operation"-- Abstract, p. ii
