Minimal quantity lubrication systems

For lubrication of high-speed cutting operations
Machine operators can reduce production costs significantly by using SKF minimal quantity lubrication systems (MQL). These systems provide longer tool life and improved production quality due to more precise surface machining. Because MQL systems do not require cooling lubricant, the cost of that lubricant, its associated lubricant filters, preparation systems and disposal is eliminated. Also workpieces and chippings do not need to be cleaned.

Benefits

  • Extends the service life of the cutting tool.
  • Increases productivity with higher cutting speed.
  • Reduces maintenance costs.
  • Enables better machining surface and quality.
  • Reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
