Abstract :
This paper presents an analytical method in quantifying carbon emissions generated from different processes associated with a CNC-based machining system. In particular, the paper considers the amount of electricity, cutting fluid, wear and tear of cutting tools, material consumption and disposal of material waste as the sources for the carbon emissions of the system. A case study of a CNC machine processing a cylindrical turning workpiece is conducted, where carbon emissions of the system are analyzed with various cutting speeds.
