Therefore, many investigations focused on the shallow and deep cryogenic treatments in terms of their performance on the machinability criteria. This paper presents a detailed analysis on machinability investigation of cryogenically treated hardened 4140 steel (55 HRC), and sustainability assessment in hard machining on finishing mode carried out at dry cutting regime. A series of machining trials have been performed under varied cutting conditions (feed, depth of cut and speed) following the L9 orthogonal array design experimental layout for analysis of various responses along with cost estimation in hard turning. Moreover, the machining parameters are optimized and mathematically formulated for the minimization of various responses using a multi-objective optimization method. Finally, considering the motivational idea of "Go green-Think green-Act green", a unique novel approach has been proposed concerning economic evaluation and sustainability assessment in hard turning for safer and cleaner approach of environment friendly manufacturing. According to statistical analysis, feed influenced both surface roughness and cutting force significantly. Because of cryogenic treatment both surface roughness and cutting force diminished. It is noticed that with high speed, low feed, and depth of cut both force and roughness value declined. The tool life of CBN was 44min and considering the same, Gilbert's machining economic model calculated the overall machining cost per part of 80.86 in the machining of hardened AISI 4140 steel. The outcomes clearly established that machining under dry conditions provides environment friendliness, technologically viable, and economically feasible to improve sustainability.
