Coolants & Lubrication Systems

E -Tec 509 meets military specs and competes with other finishes because of higher corrosion protection, 168 hours, and low application costs.

Reducing the environmental footprint in a production plant is often achieved with state-of-the-art production equipment, but many companies are looking to improve on these achievements.Oil filtration might be a good way to help improve the environment.

Kratzer GmbH & Co. is a Offenburg, Germany-based precision manufacturer of components made from a wide range of materials that must meet the exacting standards required by its high-tech cuustomers. The company meets these specifications in part through investing in state-of-the-art equipment including grinding machines, machining centers, lathes, metrology equipment. Recently, the company invested in new grinding technology as well as a new filtration system.

Developed by Josef Maatuk, a consultant at Los Angeles-based Max Em Engineering, a new unifying smart sensor designed for autonomous fluid management systems is said to monitor, in real time, the heat removal capability of coolant, acidity levels, amount of coolant, and the temperature of the coolant across the height, rather than a single point.

With FullStream nozzles, the liquid is supplied into the body of the nozzle creating a swirling action within a vortex chamber. This vortex produces the spray pattern when the machined nozzle breaks the liquid surface tension as it exits the orifice and into a controlled spray angle.

SintoGrind HSS-X 1400 is suitable for flute-, thread-, profile-, internal and external cylindrical grinding of steel materials such as HSS, PM and medical steels. SintoGrind HSS-X 1400 is low foaming, prevents surface burning, inhibits burr development, is low misting and offers excellent filterability.

Automated coolant delivery system enables unattended machining

Precision Tool Technologies Inc., Brainerd, Minnesota, developed the FullShop automated coolant delivery system to eliminate manually monitoring and replenishing coolant so that the shop could enable unattended machining.

Coolant and lubricant droplets can jeopardize worker safety and productivity

The TungTurn-Jet system strategically directs the internal coolant jet exactly where it is needed, close to the cutting point on the insert rake face. This dramatically improves chip control during the machining of difficult-to-cut materials, which is not the case with conventional coolant delivery methods. Additionally, the other coolant jet is fed from the bottom to minimize flank wear for increased insert life and productivity.

Talking ultrafine filtration of water-soluble, fully synthetic coolants, emulsions or oils contaminated by sludge or chips - the use of a suitable filter system in industrial metalworking, such as tool grinding, turning and milling, is an important parameter for success. This is because ultrafine filtration plays a key role in ensuring that the machining process produces high quality, is sustainable and economical, and keeps the wear on the installed coolant system components low. With the new UBF vacuum belt filter, filter manufacturer Vomat is presenting a high-performance system that filters grinding residues, of metals and nonferrous alloys, from a wide variety of lubricants and coolants
