[Improvement Case] Combination of Low Foaming Oil Agent and Foam-Resistant Rust Preventive Liquid

We will introduce examples where the elimination of tasks such as machine stoppages and cleaning around tanks has contributed to improvements in production efficiency!

We would like to introduce a case where the simultaneous use of low-foaming oil agents and foam-resistant rust inhibitors resolved the risks of rust and foaming, based on a request from a company in Niigata Prefecture. The company faced the risk of liquid overflowing from tanks due to foaming caused by the addition of rust inhibitors to water-soluble processing fluids, which could lead to environmental pollution. In response, we proposed the application of low-foaming oil agents. By switching to a different type of oil agent, we were able to simultaneously eliminate the risks of rust and foaming, thereby eliminating the hassle of machine stoppages caused by overflow and contributing to improved production efficiency. [Case Overview] ■Challenges before implementation - The occurrence of foaming due to the addition of rust inhibitors to water-soluble processing fluids was a concern. ■Proposed solutions - Application of low-foaming oil agents - Selection of rust inhibitors that are less likely to foam even under high-pressure discharge *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
