How to choose between fully synthetic grinding fluid and semi synthetic cutting fluid?
April 28, 2023
Many customers do not know whether to choose Semi Synthetic Cutting Fluid or fully synthetic grinding fluid when choosing cutting fluid. Today, we will discuss how to choose cutting fluid for everyone.
1. Different ingredients Cutting fluids can be divided into mineral oil, semi synthetic, and fully synthetic. Cutting fluids made from mineral oil usually emulsify and exhibit a milky white milk color; The semi synthetic cutting fluid exhibits microemulsion and is slightly opaque. Grinding fluid is also divided into mineral oil and fully synthetic. The key consideration for general grinding fluid is its oiliness and rust prevention treatment ability. Both general grinding fluid and emulsified cutting fluid can be interchangeable, but with special precision requirements and high environmental protection requirements, it is necessary to use fully synthetic grinding fluid. 2. Different roles in the processing process The lubricating effect of cutting fluid in the cutting process can reduce the friction between the rake face and chips, and between the rear face and the machined surface, forming a partial lubricating film, thus reducing the cutting force, friction and power consumption, reducing the surface temperature and tool wear of the friction part between the tool and the workpiece blank, and improving the cutting performance of the workpiece material. During the grinding process, after adding grinding fluid, the grinding fluid infiltrates into the lubrication film between the grinding wheel, the workpiece, and the grinding debris, reducing the friction between the interfaces, preventing the wear of the cutting edge of the grinding particles and the adhesion of the chips, thereby reducing the grinding force and friction heat, improving the durability of the grinding wheel and the surface of the workpiece. 3. Different Concepts Cutting fluid is an industrial liquid used in the cutting, cutting, and grinding processes of metal materials to cool and lubricate cutting tools and machined parts. Cutting fluid is composed of various powerful multifunctional additives scientifically compounded. The oily grinding fluid of grinding fluid is composed of avgas, kerosene, transformer oil, various vegetable oils, animal oils and hydrocarbons, and several additives; The key is good viscosity, lubrication, and rust prevention performance. The cleaning process must be accompanied by organic solvents, which has the disadvantages of environmental pollution and high cost.
