CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., June 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Common sources of
high coolant usage for machining and grinding operations in the
Metalworking industry are poor tramp oil rejection and inadequate
fines handling, as the coolant can destabilize and become rancid.
Additionally, high oil containing coolants and high carry off
can all contribute to high coolant usage.
QUAKERCOOL® 740, developed by Quaker Chemical
Corporation (NYSE: KWR, "Quaker") to improve increasing health,
safety and performance demands in the Metalworking industry, can
alleviate these common issues while providing the proper
lubrication for machining and grinding operations.
A global automotive manufacturer performing machining and
grinding on cast iron cam and crank shafts was experiencing
escalated usage rates with a high oil containing, semi-synthetic
product. Quaker recommended converting to QUAKERCOOL®
740, a low oil containing emulsifiable coolant with no added
chlorine, sulfur, boron, secondary amines, formaldehyde, or
phenolic compounds. QUAKERCOOL® 740 has excellent
fines handling properties, provides exceptional tramp oil
rejection and reduces drag out, which contribute to lower
usage. Throughout the trial, the customer reported no foaming,
great microbiological control, no odor issues, and no machining and
grinding concerns. By switching all three of their coolant systems
to QUAKERCOOL® 740, the customer realized the following
results:
- Total annual cost savings of over $50,000 for all three systems
- Lowered usage rates due to reduced carry off on the
part
- 2.5% Reduction in make-up rates by replacing a higher
oil semi-synthetic product
This biostable technology provides excellent sump life and
microbiological resistance, including resistance to myco bacteria,
and was specifically engineered to provide effective machining for
ferrous-based materials in all applications.
