Minimum quantity lubrication, or mql, is a process that involves applying a very small, even microscopic amount of lubricant to a metal component in order to reduce wear and friction. This technique is often used in manufacturing and metal fabrication where the use of excess lubricant can be difficult or impractical.
Metalworking applications benefited by using MQL
The applications where MQL is commonly used are; CNC routing, CNC milling, manual milling, metal band sawing and other metalworking machining processes. It is not limited to these applications though, because any type of machining where friction is caused during a cutting process needs some type of cooling application. This protects and lubricates the cutting tool from heat and excessive wear, as well as protecting the workpiece, providing a higher quality finished product.

MagLube leading the industry in MQL development
MQL, also known as Micro-lubrication, is still in its early stages, and there is plenty of room for further development. With continued research and development, micro lubrication could become an essential part of many industrial and consumer products. MagLube is at the forefront of product development when it comes to micro-lubricant systems and the eco-friendly organic lubricants they’ve developed.
Micro lubrication in machines can be very beneficial. It helps reduce wear and tear on the machine, and also lowers the amount of heat that is generated from friction. Micro lubrication can improve the performance of machines in a number of industries, including automotive, medical, and aerospace, tool manufacturing and many others.
Properly calibrated MQL systems provide a superior lubrication process
While mql offers a number of benefits, it is not without its challenges. Applying too little lubricant can actually increase wear and friction, while applying too much can lead to contamination and other problems. In order to achieve the best results with mql, it is important to carefully calibrate the amount of lubricant used.
This is where MagLube excels. They custom design the lubricant delivery system specifically for each machine or application. When necessary, MagLube will retro-fit their customer’s machinery so the exact amount of lubricant needed is delivered at the precise moment during the cutting process. This enables a MagLube MQL system to deliver amazing and precise results across a wide range of metalworking machines.
