Effect of minimum quantity lubrication on surface roughness in tool-based micromilling

Cutting fluid plays an important role in machining processes to achieve dimensional accuracy in reducing tool wear and improving tool lifespan. The conventional flood cooling method in machining processes is not cost effective and consumption of huge amounts of cutting fluid is neither healthy no...
