When you need to heat machinery or raw materials in an industrial setting, what method comes to mind? It is easy to think of “boiling water” or “steam,” but in precise industrial processes that require high temperatures, a special type of oil called “Thermal Oil” is used. In today’s post, we will clearly explain the…

In the heat treatment process, which determines the strength and lifespan of metal, the most dramatic moment is undoubtedly “Quenching.” This process, in which red-hot metal is plunged into a liquid to cool it down in an instant, is called the flower of metalworking. However, this raises a question: “Why can’t we just cool it…

The global wave of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management is rapidly changing the landscape of manufacturing sites. In the past, productivity and processing quality were the only top priorities, but now ‘eco-friendliness’ and ‘worker safety’ have become core indicators that determine the success or failure of factory operations. Amidst these changes, the most spotlighted…

Do you know the hidden contributor that determines the lifespan and yield of equipment in the semiconductor, display manufacturing, and industrial robotics sectors? It is none other than ‘Lubricating Grease’, which prevents component wear in extreme environments. However, industries have long struggled to find the perfect lubricant. Today, we will explore the necessity and innovative…

In the past, “low cost” was considered the ultimate virtue for EDM fluids on the mold machining floor. It was common practice to purchase them in bulk by the drum, use them until the oil turned pitch black and emitted a foul odor, and then dispose of them to refill with fresh oil. This role…

Hello! If you deal with Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) in the precision machining field, you already know that your choice of “dielectric fluid” impacts the machining results just as much as the quality of your equipment or electrodes. If you think of it merely as a coolant and use just any oil, you may experience…

In cost-reduction meetings at mold machining factories, one of the very first targets is often “consumables.” Among these, oils purchased by the drum seem to offer noticeable cost savings even with just a slight drop in the price per liter. Because of this, many workplaces often opt for cheaper products under the assumption that “all…

There is a common misconception when handling lubricants on the mold machining shop floor: the belief that “oil must always be thick and highly viscous to protect molds effectively.” For processes using general stamping or press oils, this might be true to some extent, as a strong oil film prevents physical friction. However, in Electrical…

There is a concern that anyone working in a metalworking site, especially one using water-soluble cutting fluids, has likely experienced at least once: the pungent stench that fills the factory on Monday mornings. This odor is more than just an unpleasantness; it is a clear warning sign that the cutting fluid has ‘rotted.’ If left…

As raw material prices surge and manufacturing cost pressures intensify, ‘consumables’ are often the very first target for cost reduction in many mold and parts machining facilities. Among these, the hundreds of liters of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) fluid required for EDM machines present a noticeable difference in unit price, making it incredibly tempting to…
