Influence of the medium on the cutting process

Abstract

In the practice of metalworking, liquid, gaseous and solid lubricating and cooling technological means are now widely used. The use of such tools is an important factor in expanding the technological capabilities of the cutting process. The most widely used solid materials are graphite, molybdenum disulfide, metal oxides and salts, as well as solid organic compounds, etc. There are many examples of how a medium applied to a surface affects the mechanical properties of a processed material. One such example is the result of an experimental study of the effect of carbon tetrachloride on the cutting mechanism. Taking into account the inevitable costs, as well as the environmental aspects associated with the use of liquid lubricating technological agents, the use of medium that can be used for the implementation of the minimum lubrication technology is very relevant and promising.
