Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of coolant usage on the efficiency of electrical energy consumption in the sustainable turning process of the suspension spring equalizer component using a line boring machine. Energy efficiency is a key factor in modern machining processes that emphasize sustainability and resource conservation. The experiment was conducted under two conditions, specifically with and without coolant, to analyze the difference in electrical energy consumption during the machining process. The machining parameters consisted of a spindle speed of 234.6 rpm, a cutting depth of 0.5 mm, and a feed rate of 0.86 mm/rev. The electric current was measured using a clamp meter at ten-minute intervals, while the electrical energy consumption was calculated using a three-phase power model to obtain the average consumption value during the machining process. The results showed that the use of coolant reduced the average power consumption from 3655.09 watts to 3308.23 watts, resulting in an energy efficiency improvement of 9,49%. These findings indicate that the application of coolant in machining processes can improve the consistency of the machining operation and provide a positive impact on energy savings within the machining system.
