CIMCOOL FAQ


Please find below a list of frequently asked questions on metalworking fluids, Cimcool and Cimcool products. If your question is not included in this list please contact us.



‘Metalworking fluids’ are generic terms for all fluids used in a metalworking process. Metalworking fluids can generally be divided in three categories:
- Removals
- Forming
- Protectives
 
Other industrial fluids:
- Cleaners
- Hydraulics and Slideway oils
- Cooling
- Lubricating
- Friction reduction/ Prevention of chip welding
- Chip transportation
- Dust reduction
According to composition:
- Neat oil
- Synthetic
- Semi-Synthetic (micro emulsions)
- Emulsion
Metal-removal fluids, specifically the water-miscible types are all formulated to operate within a certain range of conditions in areas like concentration, pH, bacteria, tramp oil, etc. When fluid conditions fall out of this range, performance problems can develop. Regular checking and recording of the conditions is therefore of major importance. The local or Vlaardingen Cimcool laboratories are able to check all conditions but the major ones can be checked on site on a daily or weekly basis:
- Concentration
- pH
- Bacteria
 
Causes of problems with water-soluble metalworking fluids:
- Incorrect concentration
- Contamination
- Improper maintenance
- Incorrect product

Removal, forming, protective, and cleaning fluids, hydraulic & slideway oils, additives and equipment for a wide range of (demanding) applications and a diversity of markets (see: Products).
A very high level. We will provide the service required to optimize performance of your production process (see: Service).
Fluid costs only represent a small percentage of total production costs. However, MWF are an important factor in your production process, enhancing the performance of many production elements. This makes it essential to choose the right fluid for each application. The high performance and long product life of Cimcool metalworking fluids ensure a reduction of overall production costs:
  • Fluid costs (long fluid life, low top-up rate)
  • Disposal costs (long fluid life)
  • Tool costs (long tool life)
  • Filter costs (clean fluids)
  • Energy costs (lower operating temperatures in washers)
  • Sickness costs (high HSE standards)
  • Higher productivity (less production downtime, better lubrication, scrap reduction)
  • Service (expert advice in the selection process and usage of your Cimcool product  and excellent customer service, enhancing product performance, scrap reduction)
Cimcool is fully compliant with REACh, GHS and CLP (see: REACh). Cimcool products are gentle on the skin and many are tested by Dr Diepgen from Heidelberg University and Evonik.

For Cimcool the environment is one of the most important aspects when developing a new product. That is why our R&D department is always concentrating its efforts on discovering new raw materials to be able to improve the performance of the product and also to reduce the impact on the environment (see: Innovation)
