EFFICIENCY CRITERIA FOR LUBRICATING-COOLING FLUIDS
Abstract
There are currently many companies manufacturing a large number of lubricating fluids, which makes it hard for technologists (manufacturers) when trying to make their choice of a lubricating coolant. The most acceptable criterion for evaluating lubricating-cooling fluids (LCF) is tool durability test; yet this is rather time and effort-consuming. This article dwells on a less time-consuming way to assess various LCFs based on measurement and comparison of cutting force. In particular, the paper focuses on a method for ranking the measurements and averaging the measurement error for the experimental data, which increases the reliability benchmarks when selecting a LCF. A new approach in evaluating various LCFs is their rank or scoring. Later on the methodology proposed will be monitored through wear tests employing various tools.
