TESTIMONIALS:

“......During the tests we were monitoring the tool life, surface finish after machining, consumption and level of acceptance by the operators......We have found that the coolant matched or exceeded our expextations in all areas and thus subsequently changed all our other CNC machines to the same coolant......”

“......because we have a strong interest in the health of our staff......Stabillo coolants give us what we expect......save use, extended tool life, good machined surface finishes, lasting coolant, competitive price......”

“......we use the latest machinery for which we demand high quality products......We have used many known brands of coolant for our CNC machines with varied results. The coolants have often gone mouldy, sticky and we experienced fungus grown within the coolant especially in warmer months. We were introduced to Stabillo Cut and the results have been amazing. We are finding that the coolant is long lasting and holding its consistency. We have had no mould or fungus and have no hesitation in recommending Stabillo Cut......”

“......Secondly, we have finally used the Stabillo Machining Fluid and results from my toolmakers are good. My team leader whom I respect greatly advises the machinery coolant is exceptional. When I read the MSDS report sheets I was impressed and with the positive feedback and suitable pricing I expect to continue ordering this product from you. With this I would like to invite you to offer supply to our sister company who operates a large toolroom......”

“......Strub Stabillo Cut 1 SW was implemented at the......machine shop as a result of the drive to move towards a more user and environmentally friendly cutting fluid as an alternative to the current popular emulsion based fluid that the workshop was using. One of the major improvements after moving to this cutting fluid that became immediately apparent was the improved surface finish achieved on our machined parts. The picture shows the part as it came from the machine with no cleandown other than being dried with a cloth.



The component is a major part of an......and is machined from 6061-T651 aluminium on a Deckel Maho 5 axis machining centre. The mixing rate for the cutting fluid was 5% in clean tap water with no additives. Apart from better surface finishes other improvements were; better cleanliness of machine interiors with less oily residues clinging to machine surfaces, positive washing of clinging swarf from machine surfaces and windows, high user acceptance with no off odours or greasy residues and no apparent rusting or blistering of machine paintwork. This is a huge improvement over the fluid that the shop had been using for many years.
It was found that the small amount of time invested in simply changing to a more modern cutting fluid was well worth the improvements that were achieved......”

“......Several months ago at......, workshop management decided to look at alternative cutting fluids with a view to replacing our current emulsion based cutting fluid that has been the standard for many years. Although there was nothing intrinsically wrong with the currently used product in regard to its performance it was felt that something cleaner and more user friendly would be more in line with our current work practices. A......we machine mainly 6000 series aluminium, stainless steels and titanium alloys on Mazak and Bridgeport CNC machines.

Upon testing the Strub Stabillo Cut VP1 SW it was immediately apparent that
this product had some advantages. First was machine cleanliness. Swarf and
clinging oil was washed from the inside of the machine in a very positive
fashion. After about a week the test machines looked as if they had been
thoroughly cleaned down for Christmas shutdown. All swarf and oil had been
washed away by the coolant leaving a clean and sparkling machine interior.
More importantly, the operators window on the doors of the machines were
clear and oil free giving the operator a better view of the machine operation. No blistering or loss of paint from the machine interior was observed.

Secondly, surface finish was improved when machining 6000 series aluminiums. Parts were coming off the machine with a much shinier finish than what we were used to seeing. Most importantly however, operator acceptance was very high. Minimal odour, a distinctly non-oily feel and quick draining of the emulsion into the machine sump away from working surfaces all contributed to positive operator feedback. One operator commented that he did not want to change back to our original coolant after using this product.

The absence of halogenated and fluorinated compounds in the product when machining titanium alloys was also a positive point. Because of the above points, the Strub product has been selected to replace our currently used coolant in the coming months......”
