Material Removal Rate and Surface Roughness on Grinding of Ductile Cast Iron Using Minimum Quantity Lubrication

A promising alternative to conventional fluid coolant application is minimum quantity lubrication (MQL). Despite much research, there have been few investigations about the influence of MQL parameters on the process results, such as oil flow rate, workpiece speed and depth of cut. The objective of...
