Is cutting fluid important for vertical machining centers?

Ensuring the daily maintenance of cutting fluid is a prerequisite for ensuring the stability of metal processing. Correct use of cutting fluid is conducive to ensuring the quality of metal processing, extending the service life of cutting fluid, and reducing the production cost of enterprises. If the lubrication of cutting fluid decreases, the accuracy and finish of the workpiece will not meet the requirements; for example, the anti-rust performance of cutting fluid decreases, which will affect the accuracy of workpieces. Reduce the life of machine tools; increase in chip oil will pollute fixtures, tables, and measuring instruments, affecting the accuracy of workpieces; it can be seen that it is very important to maintain cutting fluid. During the processing, the cutting fluid data should be registered by designated personnel and quantity, and the record of cutting volume should be included in the daily maintenance process of CNC machining center.

The following standards should be considered when purchasing cutting fluid

Rust resistance: The rust resistance of cutting fluid should be higher than the rust resistance of the equipment components themselves. It does not damage the appearance of the product and does not require cleaning and processing.

Safety: Safety should be ensured during storage and transportation, there is no risk of flammability and explosion, and there are no harmful and toxic substances.

Lubricity: The lubricity of cutting fluid should be higher than that of traditional lubricating products to increase the gloss of the product.

Cooling: Strong heat dissipation can keep the shape of the workpiece unchanged during high-speed processing.
