AGMA 955-A22 is a guide for gear designers and manufacturers in the selection of suitable commercially available liquid lubricants for open and enclosed gear drives.
Blaser Examines Every Chip in Detail in an Innovative Series of Tests
The macro high-speed recordings are impressive: Viewed in slow motion, a carbide milling tool removes a perfectly shaped brass chip. The Blaser Synergy 735 metalworking fluid becomes cloudy around the curling chip—exactly where the heat is greatest. It leaves an oil-like phase and thus forms an even more effective lubricating emulsion. In an extensive series of tests in the in-house Technology Center, the metalworking fluid experts from Blaser Swisslube analyze machining processes down to the finest detail. The principle: To achieve better metalworking fluids faster through expertise and data.
