The use of cutting fluid are generally considered a solution for the increase of productivity, reducing the cutting tool wear. However, the costs of the system, maintenance and disposal of the fluid, besides the damage to health and to the environment, make necessary the development of a sustainable technological evolution. Sme alternatives such as cryogenic machinig, the use of minimum quantity of lubrificant or even the dry cutting have been studied, but the performance of these methods is restricted to specific conditions. This work presents the conception, development and analysis of an environmental ly friendly method of cooling without health hazards, with integration, into several equipments, without changing the structure of the cutting tools and equally or even more efficient than the application of cutting fluid. A toolholder was desined with an internal cooling circuit in which cooling fluid R141-b flows and evaporates when removing the heat from the cutting tool, and then condensed, creating a closed circuit without release to the atmosphere. The results of using the proposed system were compared to conventional application of cutting fluid and dry cutting in turning of AISI 1045, using uncoated carbide, cutting tools, as well as in the turning of difficult to cut austenitic steel SAE XEC-F, using coated cutting tools. The tests indicated that the proposed system provided a tool life similar to cutting fluid application, suggesting that the reduction in temperature of the cutting tool was able to attenuate the wear mechanisms and the changes in hardness and toughness of the comented carbide. During the turning of stainless steel, the cutting fluid led to cooling and lubrification, exceeding the conceived method, since the low thermal conductivity and high abrasion are common when machining this material
