The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential application of mist process in continuous cutting. In particular, the so-called oil-water combined mist process method was studied. The oil-water combined mist process is to supply an oil-water combined mist that includes water and cutting oil. The heat produced in cutting process had been removed from cutting edge with the vaporization of the water in oil-water combined mist. The oil in the oil-water combined mist lubricated the cutting edge of the cutting tool. Therefore, the application of the oil-water combined mist provided better cooling and lubricating capability in the mist process. The experimental result show that the oil-water combined mist process improves the quality of the machining surface, reduces the wear off of cutting tools.
