Example from an
aerospace manufacturer of aluminium components...
Initial Investigation concluded:
 | Coolant life problem was associated
with poor choice of coolant. The coolant used had inadequate
bio-stability, high foaming tendency in soft water, and inadequate
lubricity. |
 | High coolant consumption was also
due to high drag-out and foam. |
Recommendation:
 | Use a particular specialist low foam
aluminium coolant. |
 | This coolant was sourced for the
customer from a major brand supplier. |
Results:
 | Significant reduction in consumption |
 | Reduction in foaming problems |
 | Improved tool-life and surface
finish. |
 | More operator comfort. |
 | Coolant life massively increased. |
