Abstract

Turning process performance is poor during machining of AISI 316 material due to high tool wear and poor surface quality of machined parts. In the present work, an attempt has been made to reduce the decremental effects caused during machining of AISI 316 material by using textured tools consisting of array of circular pit holes texture design on the rake face of the tool under Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) condition. Results of the present work indicate that the developed textured tools significantly reduced the cutting temperature, tool rake wear, tool flank wear and surface roughness to a maximum of 35%, 14%, 24% and 27% respectively when compared to untextured tools under MQL condition. Research of the present work indicate that textured tools could serve as coolant storage sites and meet the industry requirements by improving the turning performance of AISI 316 material.
