Environmentally conscious machining and technology have been taking more and more important position in machining process. Since cutting fluid has some impact on environment, many researches are being carried out to minimize the use of cutting fluid. It can be Increased the environmental pollution through not using coolant any more or minimizing it. In this study, the cooling effects of cutting methods using the compressed cold air, dry cutting and cutting fluid will investigate in the blade machining. In order to examine the characteristics of cutting and tool in the environmentally conscious machining, this work investigates experimentally the degree of tool wear, cutting force and characteristics of surface roughness in relation to machining conditions and cooling methods.

Used cutting fluid from machining processes is harmful to both environment and human health. Chemical substances that provide the lubrication function in the machining process are toxtc to the environment if the cutting fluid is released to soil and water and caused serious health problems to workers who are exposed to the cutting fluid in both liquid and mist form. Recently. cost of using cutting fluid is increasing as the number and the extensiveness of environmental protection laws and regulations increase. Therefore, the use of cutting fluid in machining processes place an enormous burden on manufacturing companies to cover the additional costs associated with their use and protection of our environment. Current trends in manufacturing are focused on minimizing or eliminating the use of metalworking fluids in machining processes. And the increased costs for the disposal of waste products (swarf, coolants and lubricants), especially in industrially developed countries, has generated interest in dry machining. A variety of new techniques are testimony that new technology has rationalized further efforts to research and implement dry machining processes. This paper presents the developed equipment, the process optimization and the applications in the field of surface grinding for the new cryogenic dry machining using a compressed cooling air. The investigated new machining process method shows many advantages compared to conventional techniques with cutting fluid.

In this study, high speed machining is evaluated with regard to economical and environmental effects. Considering environmental loads, machining costs are analyzed with the mathematical models of machining economics and cutting fluid loss. Data from the tool life experiments of high speed milling and turning are used for the analysis. The analysis of high speed milling shows that the machining cost decreases as increasing the cutting speed. In turning process, the cooling method using cutting fluid shows the minimum machining cost. Considering both machining and environmental costs, cooling method using cold air is superior to other methods.

The purposes of using cutting fluid during cutting have been cooling, lubricating, chip washing, and anti-corroding. However, the present manufacturing industry restricts the use of cutting fluid because cutting fluid contains poisonous substances which are harmful to the human body. Therefore dry cutting becomes an unavoidable assignment and a lot of researches have studied cutting methods without using cutting fluid. Because dry turning is a continuous work, tools life is reduced by continuous heat generation and surface gets rough due to reduced lubrication, so it is important to consider these situations. In this paper, the way of selecting the optimal machining condition by the minimum number of experiments and the effectiveness of using compressed air in high hardness materials through Taguchi method have been found. Dry cutting using compressed air showed better cutting characteristics than normal dry cutting with respect to by cutting force, tool wear, and surface roughness. Also, the optimal machining condition f3r dry cutting using compressed air could be selected through Taguchi method.

This paper presents an analytical and experimental study of a cryogenic machining for precision hard turning. A cryogenic circulation system is designed and mounted on the top of the tool insert. The machining process used is facing operation on a CNC turning center with dry and cryogenic conditions. The tool temperature and cutting forces are measured by the K-type thermocouple and by a three-component Kistler dynamometer, respectively. Both data are fed into the data acquisition program through an A/D card. Surface roughness and form accuracy of the machined surface are measured by WYKO NT2000. It is also found that surface roughness and form accuracy with cryogenic cooling are better than those with no coolant.

표면기술은 수용액 등의 분위기에서 처리하는 습식법(도금기술)과 플라즈마, 진공 등의 분위기에서 처리하는 건식법(박막기술)으로 대별할 수 있다. 1950년대부터 시작된 도금기술은 환경문제, 경제성 등으로 어려움을 겪고 있으나 박막기술은 첨단산업의 추세에 맞추어 기술발전이 극대화되고 시장도 급속히 성장하고 있다. 박막기술중의 중요한 신기술은 다이아몬드 박막 분야인데 수명과 절삭능력이 수십배로 향상될 이 기술은 2~3년 안에 상품화 될 것으로 예상된다.
