Coolants & Lubrication Systems

EXAIR's new 1/8 NPT siphon-fed spray nozzles atomize fluids in a range of spray patterns for a wide variety of uses. These are the company's smallest air atomizing nozzles and are suitable for tight spaces.

Enhanced operational efficiency offered by industrial lubricants is bolstering their use in the constantly expanding manufacturing sector, as well as other industries such as power generation and oil and gas. Growing use of high-performance lubricants in these end-use industries is expected to drive market growth in the forecast period (2019-2027).

The Grinding Doc cautions shops about improving coolant in all grinding operations. Depending on the type of grinding and the job requirements, less coolant can be more.

Conventional metalworking fluids are effective at providing cooling and lubrication during machining, but they have critics. One is Fusion Coolant Systems Inc., which offers products for supercritical CO2 (scCO2) as an alternative to those fluids.

Finely filtered grinding oils in cutting tool manufacturing are an important key to more quality and efficiency in production. Tool manufacturers who rely on the right technology and competence of their fine filtration equipment manufacturer make optimal use of the many advantages offered by efficient grinding oil filtration.

The Vomat UBF concept is a vacuum band filter equipped to handle a wide variety of sludge materials, such as ceramic, HSS, brass, aluminum oxide and disc abrasion.

Leading manufacturers in the cutting tool industry know there are many factors that contribute to producing superior quality tools.

Traditionally, manufacturers have relied on mineral-oil based rust preventatives for temporary protection of metal components during storage and shipment. While these are effective, they must be disposed of as hazardous waste, introducing extra costs and complications to the cleanup process.

Klüber Lubrication introduces industrial gear oils to its maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) portfolio.

EXAIR's new Mini Cooler with dual point hose kit provides a stream of 20 degrees F (-7 degrees C) cold air to prevent heat buildup, reduce downtime and increase productivity. It is effective on small-part machining operations to eliminate burning, melting and heat related breakage.

REGO-FIX offers a new cryogenic coolant technology based on the powRgrip system. Called CRYO-powRgrip (PG-CRYO), the system is produced in conjunction with a European supplier of carbon dioxide coolant and targets customer needs to boost productivity and eliminate secondary cleaning operations, especially for medical industry part-production operations.

The need for energy-efficient, sustainable processes is increasing especially with regard to the frictions caused by high energy prices, increasing global warming and scarce resources. These requirements also have a direct impact on vacuum systems, which are an elementary component in heat treatment plants and metallurgical processes.
