Customer: High Precision Job Shop
Customer Need: Reduce Cost, Improve Quality
This customer is a job shop which specializes in CNC Precision Turned Components. This company services both Microwave and Electronic Industries. Material mix includes 90% copper and brass, and approximately 10% steel.
Results:
| ISSUES | QualiChem XTREME CUT 731 |
|---|---|
| Coolant Cost | 30% Less |
| Coolant Consumption | 14 Drums per year |
| Part Cleanliness | Improved |
| Machine Cleanliness | Improved |
| Part Quality | Improved |
Summary: The XTREME CUT 731 is specifically formulated to provide maximum cutting performance on copper and brass.
XTREME CUT 731 has a lower viscosity which allows for better flow and penetration to the point of cut versus most traditional cutting oils, which helpes improve the customer’s part quality. The low viscosity also resulted in less oil being “carried out” on parts and chips which significantly lowered product consumption resulting in a lower cost.
In short, this customer was able to meet their goals to reduce unit cost while also improving machining performance by introducing the XTREME CUT 731 to their operation.
