Abstract
This paper describes development of end milling of SUS304 by electrolyzed reduced water of dilute sodium chloride solution, instead of conventional cutting with cutting fluid. First, experimental equipments were built with a machining center and cutting fluid supply system made from the bath pump and temperature sensor and temperature recorder etc., and end milling processing of SUS304 was performed using electrolyzed reduced water of dilute sodium chloride solution and conventional cutting fluid respectively. Next, measured surface roughness, evaluated surface deterioration layer, temperature change of work piece and wear state of end milling. As the results of all evaluations above–mentioned, there is no enormous discrepancy between the end milling using electrolyzed reduced water and that of conventional using cutting fluid.
