Abstract

In this study, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of water composition in coolant to the surface condition in turning of low carbon steel using coated carbide cutting tool. The machining experiment is conducted on computer numerical control lathe machine and using water miscible cutting fluid as coolant. Three cutting parameters, cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut are fixed at 107 mm/min, 0.05 mm/rev and 0.2 mm respectively. The composition of water in coolant is varied from 92%, 94%, 96% and 98%. The turning operation is done using the above-mentioned parameters and the result obtained is analyzed using surface profilometer for surface roughness and stereo microscope for rust formation. It is found that water composition in coolant is not giving any significant result to the surface roughness of a workpiece. The chip produced after every machining process is influenced by the machining condition and the rust formation area is increased with the respect to the time and it is also not influenced by the water composition in coolant.
