Cutting temperature measurement while machining – a review

Purpose – This paper gives the background to the measurement of metal cutting temperatures and a review of the practicality of the various methods of measuring cutting temperature while machining metals.Design/methodology/approach – The review was compiled after a literature search, visits to other research establishments and discussions with other researchers in the machining/temperature measurement field.Findings – Information about several methods of measuring cutting temperature during a machining process is given along with the limitations of the use of each method.Practical implications – All the temperature measurement methods discussed have their limitations and these are described for each method listed.Originality/value – The paper provides a review of all the cutting temperature measurement methods discovered in recent work. This will be a reference document of interest to others working in this field.
