Stable & longer lasting
24 September 2014
When manufacturer and supplier of high-pressure compression fittings, valves and bespoke instrumentation products, Waverley Brownall experienced short sump life periods and bad odours from its metalworking fluids, Q8Oils was invited to assess the problems and provide a sustainable resolution. The new cutting fluid also needed minimise machine downtime related to changing systems and reduce the waste produced as a consequence of the very short fluid life.
In an example of how things have improved since Q8Oils began supplying neat and soluble metalworking fluids for all the machine tool types and material specifications, one particular CNC machine dedicated to the manufacture of compression fittings, now being used to machine 316L stainless steel with Q8 Baroni XCIH. Previously, a congealed layer used to build up on the top of the existing cutting fluid, but with the new Q8Oils product now operational, there is no contamination.
The Q8 Baroni XCIH metalworking fluid is remaining stable and lasting longer. In fact, Waverley Brownall is reporting that Q8 Baroni XCIH is lasting at least twice as long as the previous cutting fluid and tramp oil has returned to acceptable levels, thus limiting the use of its tramp oil removal equipment.
