Abstract: The application of cutting fluid in grinding operations is crucial to control temperature levels and prevent thermal damage to the workpiece. Water-based (emulsions and solutions) coolants are used in grinding operations ...

Abstract: This work presents an experimental–numerical approach aimed at determining the chip–tool contact length during orthogonal cutting of annealed AISI 4340 steel (223 HV) with TiN-coated tungsten carbide inserts. Initially, ...

Abstract: Surface integrity refers to a set of characteristics of the surface and subsurface layers that have great influence on the functional performance of mechanical components under conditions of wear, corrosion, and fatigue ...
