‘Coolant Life’
A Manufacturingtalk guide
Start with the news release
Sintral 303 coolant has very long sump life from
Lubriserv, which we summarised at the time by saying "Lubriserv has announced the UK launch of Sintral 303, a water-miscible, chlorine-free, boron-free, nitrite-free coolant for metal machining.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Floyd to present tooling for sliding-head machines from
Floyd Automatic Tooling: "On stand 5281 at Mach 2010, Floyd Automatic Tooling will be demonstrating its ability to supply a wide and specialised range of tooling to users of sliding-head turning centres.".
In March 2010, we covered the news from Baldor
- take a look at Motorised torque arm meets AGMA standard
which says: "Baldor Electric has announced that a motorised version of the Dodge torque arm shaft-mounted speed reducer will be making its European debut at Hillhead 2010.".
Take a look also at the news release from Lubriserv, Lubriserv offers swarf-processing equipment,
as well as WNT shows tool-vending system at MACH 2010 from WNT,
and Sescoi helps CA Tooling cut machining cycle times from Sescoi.
