CIMCOOL products reportedly provide four to five times longer sump life; up to 40 percent improved tool life; an increase in productivity; excellent rancidity control; greatly reduced concentrate usage; and operator-friendly use.
CIMTECH 310, CIMTECH 315, CIMTECH 320-HFP Synthetic Metalworking Fluids: These low pH, low foaming synthetic fluids are recommended for high fluid pressure and high volume flow applications where foam minimization is critical for part quality and machine operations. They can be used for a wide variety of moderate to heavy-duty operations including creep feed grinding on ferrous and taping aluminum alloys.
CIMTECH 500, CIMTECH 510Z-HFP Synthetic Metalworking Fluids: Ideal in high fluid pressure and high volume flow applications where foam minimization is critical for part quality and machine operations on ferrous metals including stainless steels. CIMTECH 609G Synthetic Metalworking Fluid Concentrate: A hybrid synthetic developed for superior performance in heavy-duty grinding with close tolerance requirements. Although non-chlorinated, its performance exceeds that of most chlorinated soluble oils for stainless and titanium.
CIMTECH 610 Synthetic Metalworking Fluid Concentrate: This new, hybrid blend of patented and synthetic lubricants is uniquely formulated for hard metals like inconel, titanium, stainless steel alloys, aerospace alloys and hardened steels for use in heavy-duty to severe-duty machining operations.
CIMPERIAL 1060CF-HFP Metalworking Fluid Concentrate for High Fluid Pressure Applications: A chlorine-free soluble oil for high fluid pressure applications that is excellent for machining and grinding exotic alloys like titanium, aluminum, stainless, and iconel.
CIMFREE VG-920M Water Soluble Metalworking Concentrate Containing Vegetable Oil: Free of mineral oil, nonylphenol ethoxylates, and chlorine, this fluid is recommended for a wide variety of medium to heavy-duty machining operations including turning, tapping, and reaming on ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
MILPRO 860CF Straight Oil: A chlorine-free oil for grinding, broaching, gear shaving, hobbing, and other heavy-duty operations. Its lubricity on ferrous, stainless, and exotic alloys makes it an excellent choice for use in grinding ball sockets/hip joints.
OAK KOOL 1600 Synthetic Grinding Oil: This chlorine-free synthetic delivers superior oxidative stability for hard metals like titanium and performs well in Europe-style grinders.
PRODUCTO SP-621 Parts Cleaner: Free of phosphates, halogens, or solvents, this fluid is ideal for dip tank, ultrasonic and low-pressure spray applications and is acceptable for nuclear applications. It will not streak, smear, or dull finish and is especially recommended for aluminum, titanium, stainless steel, and various types of plastics.
PRODUCTO SP-530 Parts Cleaner: This non-foaming cleaner at over 120°F in high pressure washers is recommended for aluminum, ferrous, and yellow-metal parts and is ideal for ultrasonic cleaning. It provides superior stain control, is corrosion resistant, and will not streak, smear or dull surfaces.
Related Glossary Terms
- alloys
alloys
Substances having metallic properties and being composed of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal.
- aluminum alloys
aluminum alloys
Aluminum containing specified quantities of alloying elements added to obtain the necessary mechanical and physical properties. Aluminum alloys are divided into two categories: wrought compositions and casting compositions. Some compositions may contain up to 10 alloying elements, but only one or two are the main alloying elements, such as copper, manganese, silicon, magnesium, zinc or tin.
- broaching
broaching
Operation in which a cutter progressively enlarges a slot or hole or shapes a workpiece exterior. Low teeth start the cut, intermediate teeth remove the majority of the material and high teeth finish the task. Broaching can be a one-step operation, as opposed to milling and slotting, which require repeated passes. Typically, however, broaching also involves multiple passes.
- feed
feed
Rate of change of position of the tool as a whole, relative to the workpiece while cutting.
- grinding
grinding
Machining operation in which material is removed from the workpiece by a powered abrasive wheel, stone, belt, paste, sheet, compound, slurry, etc. Takes various forms: surface grinding (creates flat and/or squared surfaces); cylindrical grinding (for external cylindrical and tapered shapes, fillets, undercuts, etc.); centerless grinding; chamfering; thread and form grinding; tool and cutter grinding; offhand grinding; lapping and polishing (grinding with extremely fine grits to create ultrasmooth surfaces); honing; and disc grinding.
- lubricity
lubricity
Measure of the relative efficiency with which a cutting fluid or lubricant reduces friction between surfaces.
- metalworking
metalworking
Any manufacturing process in which metal is processed or machined such that the workpiece is given a new shape. Broadly defined, the term includes processes such as design and layout, heat-treating, material handling and inspection.
- rancidity
rancidity
Bacterial and fungal growths in water-miscible fluids that cause unpleasant odors, stained workpieces and diminished fluid life.
- stainless steels
stainless steels
Stainless steels possess high strength, heat resistance, excellent workability and erosion resistance. Four general classes have been developed to cover a range of mechanical and physical properties for particular applications. The four classes are: the austenitic types of the chromium-nickel-manganese 200 series and the chromium-nickel 300 series; the martensitic types of the chromium, hardenable 400 series; the chromium, nonhardenable 400-series ferritic types; and the precipitation-hardening type of chromium-nickel alloys with additional elements that are hardenable by solution treating and aging.
- tapping
tapping
Machining operation in which a tap, with teeth on its periphery, cuts internal threads in a predrilled hole having a smaller diameter than the tap diameter. Threads are formed by a combined rotary and axial-relative motion between tap and workpiece. See tap.
- tolerance
tolerance
Minimum and maximum amount a workpiece dimension is allowed to vary from a set standard and still be acceptable.
- turning
turning
Workpiece is held in a chuck, mounted on a face plate or secured between centers and rotated while a cutting tool, normally a single-point tool, is fed into it along its periphery or across its end or face. Takes the form of straight turning (cutting along the periphery of the workpiece); taper turning (creating a taper); step turning (turning different-size diameters on the same work); chamfering (beveling an edge or shoulder); facing (cutting on an end); turning threads (usually external but can be internal); roughing (high-volume metal removal); and finishing (final light cuts). Performed on lathes, turning centers, chucking machines, automatic screw machines and similar machines.
- ultrasonic cleaning
ultrasonic cleaning
Method of cleaning metal or plastic parts by immersing them in an aqueous or solvent-based cleaning solution and imposing ultrasound energy on the bath to enhance cleaning by creating cavitation conditions at the part surface, which imparts a strong scouring action to remove tenacious soils.
