Fluid approach to machining capabilities

摘要

Environmental considerations and increasing demands in machining capabilities are influencing the types of fluids and coolants, but longevity and quality can't be beaten, according to ITW Polymers & Fluids technical manager, Geoff Mahoney. Mahoney, an industrial chemist with more than 21 years experience in metal working fluids and coolants, said although so-called biodegradable fluids were emerging in the market, manufacturers were not prepared to compromise long-life and reliability over biodegradability.
