Extending the Life of Coolants

[coolantman]

In order to extend the life of your coolants and metalworking fluids, it is very important that any tramp oil should be removed from the tank. Chemicals are available that can be added to the coolant to protect emulsions from reactive metal fines, reject the tramp oils to the top of the tank, and extend the life of the coolant. Oil skimmers are usually the easiest solution for removing rejected oils

The presence of swarf and tramp oil create an environment that helps the growth of bacteria. Aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and fungi eat the organic components of the coolant reducing the effectiveness of it. Therefore, bacteria and fungi should be removed from the coolant or prevented from growing in the coolant. MWF Biocides can be added to kill any that exist.

A great coolant management system can be put in place by your supplier to help control usage, life, and overall coolant cost.
