Fluid recycling can aid profits
Prioritize metalworking fluids when market factors reduce profit margins.
Diffusion bonding is cool
This additive manufacturing process is helping machine shops create parts with complex internal cooling channels.
Coolant Filtration Systems
VOMAT (which stands for Vogtländische Maschinen- und Anlagentechnik) has made a name for itself in the metalworking industry with its individually tailored filtration systems for coolants, along with their stable cooling in the tool grinding industry and other processes. VOMAT's product portfolio includes modular solutions for individual systems, central systems and customer-specific special systems with central and decentralised functions. VOMAT provides systems for carbide and HSS applications but also for other materials such as cermet, ceramics and diamond.
1/8 NPT Small Internal Mix Spray Nozzles
EXAIR's new 1/8 NPT small internal mix spray nozzles atomize fluids up to 42 gallons per hour. Internal mix atomizing nozzles mix the liquid and air inside the cap and produce the finest atomization. Internal mix nozzles can be used on liquids with a viscosity up to 300 centipoise.
Hot diamonds and barber pole
The Grinding Doc addresses the cause of barber pole lines in workpieces.
Manufacturers making increased use of dry machining and MQL (part 2)
Should we continue with classic machining and coolant lubricants, or do dry machining and minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) represent viable alternatives? From a technology point of view, it is important to consider material properties and machine performance, but plant costs, energy and health aspects increasingly need to be included in any assessment of the overall process. Lubrication system manufacturers and scientists commented on these aspects in the first of this two-part series. Part 2 now looks at various machining technologies from the practical perspective of tool and machine manufacturers: a preview of EMO Hannover 2019.
Dry machining and MQL conquering more applications (part1)
Production managers in manufacturing often have to ask themselves: should we continue with conventional machining and coolant lubricants, or do dry machining or minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) represent viable alternatives? Several factors influence this decision. In Part 1 of this two-part series of technical articles being published in the run-up to EMO Hannover 2019, lubrication system experts and scientists give their assessment. Tool and machine manufacturers shed light on the subject in the second part.

Be More with Deublin Pop-Off Seal Technology
Deublin's Pop-Off rotary unions have seals that open automatically when coolant, air, or other media flow is interrupted.
Purge Coolant Filtration System
MP Systems has launched a new coolant filtration system designed to prevent chips from accumulating inside a CNC machine tool's coolant tank and causing coolant starvation of the machine tool's flood pump and the high pressure coolant pump.
RP GOLD Water-Based Rust Preventive
Madison Chemical introduces RP GOLD, a versatile water-based rust preventive that provides long-term indoor storage protection for ferrous and copper alloys. Applied to previously cleaned parts by immersion, manual spray or recirculated spray methods, RP GOLD leaves a nearly invisible, dry-to-the-touch film that provides up to four weeks of protection (or longer when used at higher concentrations).
