Manufacturing of cutting tools: balancing performance and cost control
In the production of cutting tools, the quality of the lubricant can make all the difference—in terms of tool life, process stability, and overall performance.
At CONDAT, we have developed a comprehensive range dedicated to these demanding applications, notably including the CONDACUT XC line: highly fluid, chlorine-free, full-oil products specially designed for machining, sharpening, and grinding operations.
𝐑𝐞́𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐚𝐭 :
- Excellent compatibility with carbides
- Excellent cooling capacity
- Improved filterability
- Enhanced resistance to foaming
- Improved thermal stability
- Resistance to oxidation
Focus on CONDACUT XC 408
A new-generation fluid that significantly improves grinding performance.
Results observed at one of our customers:
- Up to -3 to -4°C on grinding wheels and workpieces
- Reduced grinding wheel wear (-0.3 mm)
- Excellent performance consistency
CONDACOOL CW – the soluble concentrate with low cobalt dissolution!
Grinding tungsten carbide on cutting tools can lead to cobalt leaching, which is problematic both for operator health and maintenance operations.
CONDACOOL CW provides a concrete solution:
- Low cobalt dissolution over time
- Reduced user exposure
- Fewer fluid changes and associated costs
