Abstract

Due to climate change today, “going green” is essential for manufacturing industries. Industrial cutting
fluid affects the environmental pollution and also to the employee health. This research paper concerning on reducing
use of cutting fluid by implementing Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL). MQL system uses only 5ml to 50ml/hr of
lubricant in machining, where in flood this quantity is very much high. This paper also concentrate on better surface
finish and reducing cutting fluid cost and investigation of tapper turning operation on EN- 31 material, for optimization
of surface roughness, material removal rate in dry, flood and MQL system by considering three controllable input
parameters that are cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut.
