[Improvement Case] Introduction of Low Mist Type Water-Soluble Cutting Oil for Improved Work Environment

We would like to introduce a case where we received feedback from the operators saying, "The mist has decreased, and the smell has become less than before!"

We would like to introduce a case where a low-mist water-soluble cutting oil was implemented at a site using water-soluble cutting oil in a machining center, resulting in improved working conditions and reduced usage of cutting oil. Before the implementation, employees had raised concerns about unpleasant odors caused by oil mist, but many had resigned themselves to the situation, believing that "it can't be helped as long as we are using cutting oil." We proposed switching to a low-mist water-soluble cutting oil, and after implementation, there was a reduction in unpleasant odors and oil stains due to decreased oil mist, as well as a reduction in coolant usage. [Case Overview] ■ Challenges before implementation - Employees raised concerns about unpleasant odors caused by oil mist. ■ Effects after implementation - Reduction of unpleasant odors and oil stains due to decreased oil mist. - Led to a reduction in coolant usage. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
