Abstract:

This paper presents the experimental study on cutting forces in the hard milling process of Hardox 500 steel under the MQCL condition using Al2O3nano additives. The cooling and lubricating performance of MQCL is improved by using nanoparticles enriched in the emulsion-based fluid. Box-Behnken experimental design and ANOVA analysis are applied to determine the influence of investigated parameters in terms of cutting forces. The obtained results indicate that feed rate and nanoparticle concentration have strong effects on cutting forces. Moreover, cutting force components reduce significantly with the increase of cutting speed to 130 m/min, which is much higher than that of the manufacturer's recommendation due to the better cooling and lubricating effects. This study also provides a new alternative solution for difficult-to-cut materials like Hardox 500 steel while remaining environmentally friendly characteristics.
