Abstract
Machining with conventional flood lubrication system is a general practice in the manufacturing industries for reducing friction, heat and cutting power. The type of cutting fluid used during machining play important role in enhancing the machining performance if and only if it is selected, applied, handled and disposed in proper way. The research aimed to evaluate the performance of aloe vera oil as a cutting fluid in machining of M2 Steel, carbide cutting tool insert was used as a cutting tool under different machining parameters with different types of cutting fluids such as aloe vera oil and conventional cutting fluid in machining. The performance of developed cutting fluid is compared with conventional cutting fluid. The results of surface roughness obtained during Turning of M2 Steel with Minimum quantity lubrication of both mineral oil and vegetable are compared with each other and it is observed that the surface roughness of non edible vegetable oil i.e. alove vera give better surface finish compared with mineral oil also improved performance in terms of tool wear found while comparing alove vera oil with conventional cutting fluid.
