Abstract
The paper presents the results of investigation of the influence of conditions of forming emulsion and oil mist on the chip shape and surface roughness of X10CrNi18-8 stainless steel during turning. In the tests, the following machining operations have been compared: dry machining, cooling by the MQCL (Minimal Quantity Cooling Lubricat) method, cooling by the MQL (Minimum Quantity Lubricat) method. The tests have been performed in two stages. In the first stage, the influence of the mass flow of the active medium on the chip shape and on the Ra and Rq roughness parameters of the machined surface have been determined. The purpose of stage two was to determine the influence of the MQL and MQCL method on the selected indices of the machining process as compared to dry machining as a function of variable cutting speed. It has been found that, under MQCL and MQL conditions, the area of formation of elemental chips and ones with the shape of short spirals is wider as compared to dry turning. With increased mass flow of emulsion and oil, tangled chip is formed. Cooling by the MQCL and MQL method results in reduction of the selected roughness parameter values by 2 % to 42 % as compared to dry machining.
