CHAPTER 4 - COOLANT SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
- WARNING -
When coolant system maintenance is required, the machine must be pow-
ered down. Refer to Chapter 1 for the power-up, power-down, and lock-out
procedures.
Hardinge machine tools are designed using the latest technology and highest quality materials
available. However, due to the ever increasing number of coolant selections available, it is
impossible to test material compatibility with each and every coolant. For additional information
regarding the coolant facilities on this machine, refer to the Operator’s Manual (M-447).
- CAUTION -
Whenever water soluble coolants are used it is important to use the manu-
facturer’s recommended mix ratio (concentration). It is also important to
maintain the coolant by keeping the proper concentration level when coolant
solution is added to compensate for evaporation. Another important factor is
coolant Ph (acidity). Typically, the coolant Ph range is between 8.5 and 9.2.
Below 8.5 the rust inhibitors in the coolant start depleting, which can result
in corrosion of machine components. Also, the quality of the water should be
tested by the coolant manufacturer so that the proper coolant additives can
be administered. Failure to follow these recommendations could result in
damage to the machine, seals, and paint.
If the coolant you have selected starts to react (cause material to rust, pit,
swell, soften, crack, or blister) with any portion of the machine tool, Hardinge
suggests that you discontinue use and contact your coolant representative
for alternative coolants.
It should also be noted that certain chemicals react with different metals.
Hardinge recommends that you consult with your coolant representative to
assure that the material you are cutting does not react with the coolant you
have selected.
- NOTE -
A properly selected and maintained coolant, either oil or water based, will ensure
the best performance from the coolant and machine.
