Cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication (CMQL) is a kind of green cooling/lubrication technique, which consists of the application of a small amount of lubricant (6-100 ml/h), delivered in a refrigerated compressed gas stream to the cutting zone. This paper experimentally investigates the effect of CMQL on cutting temperature and tool wear in high-speed end milling of titanium alloys. Comparative experiments were conducted under different cooling/lubrication conditions, i.e. dry milling, refrigerated air cutting, and CMQL. The refrigerated gas equipment was manufactured based on composite refrigeration method to provide the refrigerated air. The experimental results show that application of CMQL resulted in drastic reduction in cutting temperature and tool wear especially when machining titanium alloys at a high cutting speed.

The present study deals with performance investigation of cryogenically treated plus tempered carbide inserts during machining of Inconel 718. A novel cooling approach of combined minimum quantity lubrication with cryogenic coolant, cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication is examined to improve the machinability of Inconel 718 and compared with dry, wet, minimum quantity lubrication, and cryogenic cooling conditions. Tool wear, cutting forces, and chip morphology were analyzed to evaluate the effect of cooling under different conditions. The results revealed that minimum quantity lubrication and cryogenic conditions exhibited superior performance than wet and dry conditions. However, severe tool fracture and cutting forces were observed in cryogenic machining which is an outcome of hardened surface of nickel alloy due to cryogenic fluid. Cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication was understood to be the best machining condition generating least cutting force and tool wear. Furthermore, examining chip morphology under scanning electron microscopy revealed that cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication performed stable machining.
