Exxonmobil exhibits neat cutting and grinding oils

Exxonmobil launched the Mobilgrind series of advanced neat cutting and grinding oils at the recent EMO Milan machine tool exhibition.

The oils are designed to improve machining in high-speed automated machining centres through enhanced equipment lubrication, increasing productivity and delivering maximum performance from machine tools.

This line is being launched to complement the company's existing range of Mobilmet cutting oils.

Designed to meet the increasing demands of today's highly automated machining centres, tooling trends and health-and-safety regulations, the Mobilgrind oils have been developed for high-speed grinding applications where excellent surface finish, high-precision machining and improved productivity are the primary objectives.

They can be used with conventional and CBN grinding wheels.

The use of lower-viscosity formulations helps to improve machining performance through enhanced penetration at the wheel/component interface and to keep the grinding wheel clean.

The lower viscosity also helps to reduce metal fines and particulates in the oil and to aid filtration and drainage off components, machine and swarf, keeping consumption levels as low as possible.

The Mobilgrind series of products has been designed to work with premium Mobil hydraulic and slideway oils, including the new Mobil DTE 10 Excel hydraulic oil and the new-formulation Mobil Vactra Oil.

By eliminating the problems associated with the cross contamination of different lubricants within the machine tool, this lubrication package from Mobil Industrial Lubricants is claimed to provide an extended fluid lifetime, lower maintenance costs and an improved working environment.
