Minimum Quantity Lubrication in Machining

Abstract

Micro lubrication or also known as minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) Minimum quantity lubrication is a possible solution for the optimum lubrication system. This is an alternative between wet and dry machining. In minimum quantity lubrication system, a very small amount of lubricant is used. Flood cooling is primarily used to cool and lubricate the cutting tool and work piece interface during the machining process. Primarily they conduct heat and reduce friction. They ensure a uniform temperature of the work piece and tool and help to maintain tolerances this article, the studies about minimum quantity lubrication was examined and different types of MQL systems, comparison of MQL coolant system with conventional coolant systems, applications and advantages of MQL coolant system.
