Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of variations in cooling media and variations in feeding speed in wet process turning on the surface roughness of ST 60 Steel as a recommendation for the Yasa Locomotive Hall in turning wheel shafts. This research uses an experimental method on wet process turning of ST 60 steel material by controlling the independent variables and control variables. The independent variables include variations in cooling media (radiator coolant, dromus oil, and mineral water) and variations in feed speed (20 mm/rev, 50 mm/rev, and 275 mm/rev). Control variables include spindle rotation speed (765 rpm), depth of feed (2 mm), 90º cutting angle, and using VNMG160404 insert tool. It can be concluded that turning on ST 60 steel with coolant radiator cooling media has more optimal results. The higher the feed speed, the finer the surface roughness value produced. It is known that at a feed speed of 275 mm/rev, specimens with coolant radiator cooling media have a surface roughness value of 1.415 μm, specimens with dromus oil cooling media have a surface roughness value of 2.088 μm, specimens with mineral water cooling media have a surface roughness value of 2.461 μm. The surface roughness value is within the standard range of wheel axle turning roughness values.
