[Improvement Case] Developed a dedicated oil for non-water-soluble cutting oil, improving the working environment.

Developed a dedicated oil for Category 4 petroleum! The mist that floats in the factory during the opening and closing of machine windows has also decreased.

We would like to introduce a case where we developed a dedicated non-water-soluble cutting oil at the request of a company in Niigata Prefecture, which led to improvements in the working environment. This company was using a non-water-soluble cutting oil classified as a Class 4 hazardous material, Category 3 petroleum product. However, due to its quantity being close to the specified limit under the Fire Service Act, they were considering switching to Class 4 petroleum products. Although it took some time, we developed a dedicated oil that maintained low viscosity, which reduced the amount of mist generated. Consequently, the mist that floated in the factory during operations such as opening and closing machine windows also decreased. [Case Overview] ■ Issues - The non-water-soluble cutting oil classified as a Class 3 petroleum product was close to the specified limit under the Fire Service Act, prompting consideration of Class 4 petroleum products. ■ Implementation Effects - We developed a dedicated oil for Class 4 petroleum products, successfully improving the working environment by reducing the amount of mist generated. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
