Investigation of tool wear and surface integrity on MQL machining of Ti-6AL-4V using biodegradable oil

Minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) machining involves the application of small quantity of lubricant to the tool–workpiece interface. This paper describes the results of an investigation on the effects of using different MQL lubricants (synthetic ester and palm oil) on the drilling of Ti-6Al-4V. Dry...
