Metalworking Fluids (MWFs)
| It is important to effectively manage the health,
safety and environmental impacts of metalworking fluids (MWF). |
Metalworking Fluids (MWFs) are used to reduce heat and friction in metal
cutting, grinding and shaping operations. MWFs also provide corrosion
protection for the newly machined part and machine tool.
It is important to effectively manage the health, safety and environmental
impacts of metalworking fluids (MWF). Properly maintaining the
MWF in use is not only important to the health and safety of shop personnel
but provides significant cost savings by extending the useful life of
the MWF and reducing waste.
