Ratio Study of High-Pressure Lubrication and Cutting Parameters Effects on Machining Operations and Its Effect Towards Sustainable Machining: A Review

Abstract

Machining is the art of developing sustainable mechanical components by transforming solid raw materials into the finished product. Because for any Nation to achieve sustainable development, the Nation must have quality manufacturing industries. This paper summarizes existing articles on the effects of high-pressure lubrication conditions on chip formation and temperature distribution. Also, surface roughness, tool wear, and vibrations in machining operations when considering the current trend. Furthermore, the study of nano-lubricant and their application in reducing friction and temperature were also reviewed. The study also examined other lubrication conditions, cutting parameters with the high-pressure machining operations to draw a definite conclusion. The review confirms that applying a high-pressure lubrication system is very efficient. However, it has some challenges. Cooling technology is not built into the system, discovered during this review. Therefore, the study will recommend a developed machine that can function in multiple faces. Industrial 4.0 additive manufacturing techniques can build the cryogenic system—making the lubricant delivery machine a sustainable technology in machining operation. A high-pressure-cryogenic-MQL lubrication process is needed for sustainable machining operations of various alloys and metal composite materials for automobile, aerospace, and structural applications. The sustainable lubrication system will also help eradicate high-temperature occurrence in the machining region with a sustainable way of removing the chips without experiencing chip breakage at the cutting region.
