This paper presents an investigation into the minimum quantity lubrication mode with Nano fluid during turning of titanium (TI6AL4V) alloy. In heavy cutting conditions, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) has been observed, that, Nano-cutting fluids which have enrich thermal conductivity than base fluid, are begun to be used in MQL system. The addition of the required nano particle ratio to the base liquid is one of the most important issues that arise in this method. Therefore, this study aimed to find the optimum distribution rate of graphene nano particles having excellent properties and machining parameters. To do this, graphene nano particles were added to a vegetable-based cutting solution. Nano-cutting fluids were prepared in different volumetric concentrations. When turning of titanium (TI6AL4V) alloy, these Nano fluids were used in the MQL system. Three different parameters were added to the experimental design to study the performance of Nano fluids under several cutting conditions. i.e., speed, feed rate and depth off cut. Apart from this experimental design, three tests were carried out at each concentration ratio while keeping the machining parameters constant to clearly see the impact of concentration rates on surface roughness, flank wear. And crater wear. In addition, while chipping/fracture, were observed under all cutting conditions
