Check if MQL or dry machining are available for the specific need of the projected MT • EXPLANATION: In terms of materials, MQL applies particularly to dry machining operations conducted on aluminum and on wrought aluminum alloys. In terms of the processes involved, MQL applies to hole-making operations virtually irrespective of the material concerned. Sawing is a classical area of application for the MQL technique. Turning and milling operations involving steel and cast iron materials can usually be performed completely dry by virtue of the high capacity for resistance to thermal wear of the coated carbide tools currently available. • CLASSIFICATION: • Topic: COOLANT AND LUBRICANT • Machine Structure: COOLING SYSTEM • Life Cycle phase: SELECTION OF COMPONENTS • Type of machine tools: - • Material selection: - • KEYWORDS: dry machining, MQL, Minimum quantity lubrication • SOURCES: Weinert, K., Inasaki, I., Sutherland, J.W., Wakabayashi, T. “Dry machining and minimum quantity lubrication”, 2004 • LINKS: • FIGURES/GRAPHS: 046
