Abstract

Today, mostly of machining process is carried out under dry machining or minimum quantity lubricant (MQL) method. The MQL is considered as the proper solutions to reduce the amount of lubricant. This is not only reducing in cost, but also maintaining the machine life, safety, and environmentally friendly. Previous research was attempted to develop a minimum quantity cooling technique that made a major contribution to the solution of problems that affect the parts of dry machining operations. However, a gradual phase tool wear should be conditioned to make the tool work optimally and reach better performance. Therefore, this study is aimed to review the effect of the MQL use for both cermet and carbide tools that focused on the tool wear, tool life and economic advantage in hard machining process. The review revealed that MQL with cermet tool derives the good quality lubrication, better penetrates to the cutting area, reduce the cutting temperature, and increase the quality of the surface roughness, thus it recommended instead of carbide for hard machining.
