Cutting Fluids

  • Reference work entry

Abstract

Most metal-cutting operations require the use of cutting fluids, and even those operations that can be performed dry can often be carried out more efficiently by the use of cutting fluid. Cutting fluids are often referred to as metalworking fluids but can also be known as lubrication fluids, cooling emulsions or oils, and drilling fluids.
