The key to the production of high-quality products with maximum productivity of the metal and alloy processing process using a cutting tool is the use of an appropriate coolant.
Its use will make it possible to significantly reduce tool wear and increase the accuracy of the processed elements.
COOLANT is a complex multicomponent system that provides high—quality lubrication with simultaneous cooling of machine tools and tools for processing metal parts.
The scope of application is quite wide and includes the metallurgical industry, machine, instrument engineering and so on.
In addition to a sharp decrease in temperature and heat dissipation, the lubricating and cooling mixture creates reliable protection of materials, parts and equipment from corrosion, chip washing and abrasive dust.
Classification of coolant depending on the composition, depending on the composition of coolant, it is customary to divide into three main groups:
- lubricating emulsion presented in the form of colloidal or true mixtures (oil and water);
- pure liquid mineral oils;
- water—diluted emulsifiers are a solution in the ratio of 40-80% mineral oil, 20-60% emulsifier.
An important influence on the effectiveness of the coolant is provided by the method of its supply to the cutting zone, namely jet irrigation, spraying of the emulsion into the cutting zone and liquid supply.
COOLANT concentrate is an obligatory element of the technological process involving pressure cutting (milling, grinding, stamping, etc.).
The main properties of the consistency:
- competitiveness and economic profitability of a suitable type of liquid, taking into account proper storage conditions, cost, durability, technological efficiency and level of operation;
- compliance of the physical and chemical characteristics specified in the technical documentation of the product with the established standards and norms.
Its application will make it possible to increase the durability of parts and tools along with an increase in productivity.
The liquid complies with environmental and hygienic standards, has antimicrobial, anti-corrosion and detergent properties.
The correct selection of liquid is determined by the correspondence of the type of operation performed, the method of supply to the working element, the quality indicators of materials, as well as the adequacy of the price.
Subject to the above parameters, we can talk about the maximum efficiency of the workflow.
