Abstract: Conventional cutting fluids are widely used as coolants and lubricants in machining
operations even today. However, due to the severe urge for need of green and cleaner
machining techniques, various alternative cooling and lubrication approaches are being
continuously explored. Surface integrity of machined components play a crucial role; however
the same cannot be the only criteria for deciding on the machinability aspects as well as eco-
friendliness of specific machining approach. This paper proposes a model for sustainability
assessment of machining. A model has been developed considering surface integrity aspects
along with machining environment aspects for better understanding of sustainability in
machining. High speed turning of Inconel 718 at varying MRR levels depicting productivity
rates has been carried out under dry, flood coolant and water vapour machining environments,
and then sustainability assessment has been carried out using the developed model. The
results show that the use of water vapour as coolant and lubricant in machining gives highest
product sustainability index of 83.75%. Thus machining under water vapour environment
seems to be a novel eco-friendly machining techniques and hence a better green
manufacturing technology.
