Improving tool life using cryogenic cooling

The major needs in machining are high material removal rate, good work surface finish and low tool wear. These objectives can be achieved by reducing tool wear using proper cooling system of the tool during machining. In the present work a tool has been modified to apply liquid nitrogen as coolant t...

In the present work a tool has been modified to apply liquid nitrogen as coolant through a hole made in the tool so that liquid nitrogen can be directly applied to the machining zone during machining of stainless steel with carbide tools coated with titanium carbonitride.
