Abstract

The physical health of human beings and the environment will be negatively influenced by the improper use of cutting fluid, which is an important factor for achieving sustainable machining. Turning is a basic process of all machining operations. Using a minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) system is the best way for achieving sustainable turning process. Improvements made in the MQL system to achieve better performance of the turning process have been discussed in this paper. Search categories that have been used to carry out the study are MQL system with the conventional cutting fluid, MQL system with nano-fluid, MQL system with cryogenics and restructured MQL system. The advancements in MQL turning process published over a span of four most recent years from 2018 to 2021 have been chosen for this review. In this study, the details of experimentation such as materials used for the workpiece, cutting tool materials, environments for lubrication, machining parameters, MQL fluids and performance parameters such as surface roughness, tool wear, cutting force, cutting temperature, etc. have been critically considered. Results investigated from various articles mostly show that advanced MQL systems such as MQL system with nano-fluid, MQL system with cryogenics and restructured MQL system are better than the conventional MQL system in terms of producing better output performance.
