In grinding, grinding fluid is important for improving the processing characteristics. However, in recent years, the components of the grinding fluid have been limited due to environmentally friendly efforts. The authors aim to achieve both reduction of the amount of grinding fluid used and improvement of processing characteristics. In this paper, ultrasonic vibration assisted grinding fluid (kilo-sonic coolant, mega-sonic coolant) and fine bubble-containing grinding fluid (micro bubble coolant, ultra-fine bubble coolant) are introduced. These technologies are expected to be adopted in actual production.
