Abstract

<jats:p>&lt;div&gt;In the face of the world’s population growth and ensuing demands, the industrialsector assumes a crucial role in the management of limited energy supplies.Superalloys based on nickel, which are well-known for their remarkablemechanical qualities and resilience to corrosion, are now essential in vitalapplications like rocket engines, gas turbines, and aviation. However, thesemetals’ toughness presents a number of difficulties during machining operations,especially with regard to power consumption. This abstract explores thevariables that affect power consumption during the machining of superalloysbased on nickel in great detail and suggests ways to improve energy efficiencyin this area. The effects of important variables on power consumption areextensively investigated, including cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, toolgeometry, and cooling/lubrication techniques. A careful balance between thesefactors is necessary to maximize machining efficiency and reduce power usage.Furthermore, this study reviews the effect of different heat source applicationson power consumption and the resultant quality of machined nickel-basedsuperalloys. Additionally, the critical role of cooling and lubrication inmitigating the adverse effects of high temperatures generated during machiningis thoroughly examined. Innovative cooling strategies, including cryogenic orhigh-pressure coolant systems, are explored as potential avenues to enhance heatdissipation and minimize power requirements. In essence, this abstract not onlysheds light on the challenges inherent in machining nickel-based superalloys butalso offers actionable insights into how energy efficiency can be maximizedthrough strategic parameter optimization and the adoption of innovative coolingtechniques. By addressing these aspects, manufacturers can effectively navigatethe complexities of machining superalloys while minimizing their environmentalfootprint and operational costs.&lt;/div&gt;</jats:p>
