The machining parameters of any machining operation highly affect the surface quality of a component. The objective of this paper is to study the effect of cutting fluid (SERVOCUT ‘S’ Grade oil emulsified with water) on chip-tool interface temperature while turning AISI 4340 cylindrical steel components. The turning operation was carried out with TiN coated carbide insert on the AISI 4340 steel under traditionally flooded condition. The turning parameters, namely cutting velocity, feed rate and depth of cut were chosen for the conduct of experiments. The chip-tool interface temperature of the turned specimens was measured using a properly calibrated K-type thermocouple.
