This work explores the improvement in grinding characteristics of Inconel 718 (IN718) using soluble oil under minimum quantity lubrication and liquid nitrogen (LN2) environments. The coolant flow rate in minimum quantity lubrication and LN2 grinding has been regulated through indigenously developed setups. Grinding performance has been studied in terms of on-machine measured grinding forces and centre line average surface roughness ( Ra). The obtained grinding characteristics have been compared with the outcomes under dry and wet grinding. Surface integrity of ground surface, wheel morphology, and chip formation characteristics has been studied using scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Analysis of variance has been carried out to capture the variability in the experimental data for tangential forces and Ra. The main effect of the factors and their first-order interactions have been considered, and second-order regression equations have been developed using response surface methodology. LN2 grinding has been proved to be more efficient as it yielded lowest grinding forces, least oxidation, minimal ground surface damage and better surface integrity. The occurrence of almost circular chips in dry grinding indicates severe oxidation, whereas small C-type chips formed under minimum quantity lubrication and LN2 conditions indicate effective cooling under these environments. The energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis of the ground surfaces also supports these results through the occurrence of the highest oxidation in dry grinding. From this work, it has been concluded that LN2 and minimum quantity lubrication grinding offer a clean and effective means to improve grinding performance of IN718 compared to dry and wet grinding.

Negative Environmental Impact

Abstract The topic of sustainable machining has in recent times emerged as a significant and impactful area of research focus as it directly deals with environmental health and protection, economic growth and prosperity, and societal wellbeing with greater health and wellness. More specifically, sustainable machining at product, process, and system levels deals with reducing negative environmental impact, offering improved energy and resource efficiency, generating a minimum quantity of wastes, providing operational safety, and offering improved personal health. This paper summarizes recent efforts by the world research community in sustainable machining with a systematic approach for the analysis of machining processes that are broadly classified as sustainable, beginning with dry machining, and then near-dry (also known as minimum quantity lubrication (MQL)) and cryogenic machining processes. The paper also extends its analysis to a hybrid mode of sustainable machining that effectively combines cryogenic and MQL machining processes for improved productivity and machining performance. While a significant part of this paper presents experimental analysis, the progress being made in modeling and optimization has also been discussed in the paper. In particular, major challenges involved in model development for practical implementation, with a view to selecting optimum cutting conditions and cutting tool selection, are primarily discussed in the paper. The need for continued modeling efforts for achieving deployable optimized conditions for sustainable machining is highly recognized, and further research is required in numerous fronts integrating the various convergent disciplines such as materials, mechanics, computational sciences, economics, environmental sciences.
