For lubrication during high-speed cutting operations
Machine operators can significantly reduce production costs by using SKF minimum quantity lubrication systems. These systems ensure longer tool life and improved product quality through more precise surface finishes. Since minimum quantity lubrication systems do not require coolant, they eliminate the cost of coolant, associated filters, preparation systems, and disposal. Furthermore, there is no need to clean the workpiece or chips.
Advantages
- Increasing the service life of cutting tools
- Increased productivity at higher cutting speeds
- Reducing maintenance costs
- Improving the quality of the treated surface
- Reduced energy consumption and CO2 emissions
Application areas
- Milling
- Rolling
- Cutting
- Drilling
- Boring
- Molding
The principle is simple
Minimum quantity lubrication systems
The lubricant is sprayed onto the tool's cutting edge. With the MQL system, lubricant consumption is measured in milliliters per hour, not liters per minute.
Sustainable development
You need to know your limits
Minimum quantity lubrication is gaining popularity in machining processes because it is an environmentally friendly solution that can improve productivity and reduce costs.
