Reducing the use of coolant during CNC precision machining can be considered in the following ways:

Optimising the concentration of coolant: by accurately controlling the concentration of coolant, it is possible to reduce its consumption while ensuring that it performs its proper cooling and lubricating function during machining processes

Adoption of advanced cooling systems: Waste of coolant can be reduced by using better cooling systems, such as those that provide accurate coolant flow control

Improved machining: by optimising cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed and depth of cut, heat generation can be reduced, thus reducing coolant use

Use of dry or semi-dry machining: In certain machining processes, the use of dry or semi-dry machining methods can be considered to reduce coolant dependency

Increased recycling of coolant: by installing filtration systems to remove impurities from the coolant, you can prolong its use and reduce the frequency of replacement.

Regular maintenance and inspection: Ensuring that the cooling system is functioning correctly and avoiding leaks and malfunctions can reduce coolant losses.

Use environmentally friendly coolants: Choose environmentally friendly coolants, as these products may have a longer life and less impact on the environment.

Reduce machining vibration and noise: By controlling vibration and noise, you can reduce your dependence on coolant during machining.

Increase structural rigidity of machine tools: By increasing the rigidity of machine tools, vibration during machining can be reduced, thereby reducing the use of coolant.
