  • Metalworking Fluid Controls
    Prolonging the life of the metalworking fluid and optimizing its performance are very dependent on the control of the metalworking fluid system. This control includes maintenance of the mechanical components as well as the metalworking fluid and is as important as the selection of the proper fluid
  • Metalworking Fluid Terms
    The following describe the different analyses performed on your CIMCOOL water soluble metalworking fluid mixes. To help you maximize and maintain the performance of your CIMCOOL water soluble metalworking fluid mix, these analyses are performed and the recommendations made to you. Concentration
  • Treatment and Disposal of Used Metalworking Fluids
    Even with the best fluid management procedures, waterbased metalworking fluids will not last indefinitely. Typically, two situations can dictate disposal of the fluid. These are excessive contamination (oil, dirt, metals, etc.) and rancid odors. Though these criteria are subjective, most dump
  • High-Pressure/High-Volume Delivery of Metalworking Fluids
    Metalworking fluids have typically been provided to the work zone at pressures below 100 psi (7 bar). Conventional delivery systems use this relatively low pressure to "flood" the work area with fluid. High-pressure metalworking fluid delivery systems provide pressures that range in the hundreds
  • Waterbased Metalworking Fluids: Proper Mixing Practices
    Waterbased metalworking fluids must be properly mixed and maintained in the proper concentration range to maximize performance. When fluid concentrate and water are mixed to charge the machine's fluid reservoir or central system, the fluid concentration must be tested to insure that the starting
  • Synthetic Fluids for Metalworking Applications
    There are 3 types of water-based metalworking fluid concentrates. Each type is defined by the amount of mineral oil it contains. Soluble oil fluids contain the most mineral oil, while semi-synthetic or "micro-emulsion" fluids contain lower amounts of oil. Synthetic fluids contain no mineral oil
  • Lead (Pb):In the Metalworking Environment
    in the metal removal fluid. If lead based metals or alloys containing lead are machined and/or ground and a water based metalworking fluid is used, dissolved lead should be expected in the fluid mix. To help control the lead buildup in a metalworking fluid mix, effective removal of the metal fines and chips
  • Rancidity Control
    Rancidity is one metalworking fluid problem which demands immediate attention. Employees will not tolerate a foul smelling fluid and even if they would, the rust, loss of finish, poor tool life, and the generally poor metalworking fluid performance that accompany rancidity are major problems
