The past century has witnessed significant advancements in turning process, cutting tools, machine controls and coolant/lubricant chemistry. These developments have particularly enhanced the machining of difficult-to-cut materials, which are used for aerospace, steam turbine, bearing industry, nuclear and automotive applications. In turning operation, friction and heat generation at the cutting zone are the frequent problems, which affect the tool life and surface finish apart from other machining results. This mechanism of heat generation plays quite a negative role during the turning of modern materials due to their peculiar characteristics such as poor thermal conductivity, high strength at elevated temperature, resistance to wear and chemical degradation. A good understanding of the methods of lubrication/cooling at the cutting zone, reduction of heat generation will lead to efficient and economic machining of these modern materials. This paper presents an overview of major advances in techniques as minimum quantity lubrication (MQL)/near dry machining (NDM), high pressure coolant (HPC), cryogenic cooling, compressed air cooling and use of solid lubricants/coolants. These techniques have resulted in reduction in friction and heat at the cutting zone, hence improved productivity of the process. A brief survey of modeling/FEA techniques is also performed.
