Metalworking

Water-miscible metalworking fluids for machining and grinding. What makes the difference is rarely the product alone — it is the interplay of material, tool, cutting data, machine and maintenance.

Concentration

In-use concentration is the most underrated variable. Too low costs tool life and corrosion protection, too high costs money, foam control and skin compatibility.

Water quality

Hardness and conductivity of the make-up water change emulsion behaviour measurably — the same formulation runs differently at two sites.

Emulsion service life

Turning announces itself: odour, pH trend, bacterial count, tramp oil ingress. Track those four and you replace on plan instead of by surprise.

Material and tool

Aluminium, steel, non-ferrous metals and cast iron place different demands on lubrication, corrosion protection and compatibility.

A technical classification is built from your process data and a representative sample — not a product list from the catalogue.
