Abstract

Sustainable manufacturing strives to increase output while minimizing resource usage, costs, and environmental impact. Tool longevity is crucial, considering material, power, and resource consumption. Challenges like chip removal, heat, and friction necessitate effective solutions. Cutting fluids, like rice bran oil, reduce temperatures, friction, and enhance tool life and surface quality. Research focuses on using rice bran oil with a TiAlN tipped tool to minimize friction and cutting forces. Taguchi's robust design and L-9 orthogonal array reduce experimental trials. Controllable factors include speed, feed, depth of cut, and rice bran oil flow rate, with surface roughness as the performance metric. Taguchi analysis improves turning performance, particularly with 17-4 PH stainless steel. Rice bran oil reduces frictional forces, enabling improved surface quality across all samples, promoting sustainability. Surface roughness (Ra) is notably influenced by feed rate and rice bran oil, contributing 58.06% and 49.5%, respectively. This research underscores the potential of optimizing cutting fluid and process parameters to enhance sustainability in manufacturing.
