Boosting Machining Efficiency with SUPERCOOL NEAT 240 X

About the company

A leading precision components manufacturer operating high-end sliding head machines for complex, continuous machining tasks.

The Challenge

The manufacturer struggled to find a reliable cutting oil for their multi-operation machining (threading, milling, drilling, and turning). To find a better alternative, they conducted extensive trials of cutting oils from Malaysia, Germany, the USA, Russia, and India (including top local suppliers).

However, every product tested resulted in:

  • High smoke formation and unpleasant odour
  • Poor chip flushing, leading to frequent downtime
  • Excessive tool wear requiring frequent replacements
  • Sticky residue causing machine cleaning issues
  • Inconsistent surface finish with scratches and dullness
  • Operator discomfort during extended operations

The manufacturer required a cutting oil that could handle continuous, multi-operation machining, threading, milling, drilling, turning, grooving, and forming, while maintaining tool life, machine cleanliness, and operator comfort.

The Solution

We introduced SUPERCOOL NEAT 240 X, a 100% synthetic (GTL base) cutting oil with high thermal stability, optimal viscosity, superior lubrication, and low drag-out, ensuring cleaner operations, smoother machining, and extended tool life.

Result

  • The manufacturer recorded a 20–25% increase in tool life, resulting in fewer replacements and reduced downtime.
  • The surface finish improved to a mirror-like quality with no scratches or dullness.
  • Smoke emissions were almost eliminated, resulting in cleaner air and improved operator comfort.
  • Chip removal became faster and smoother, preventing clogging during operations.
  • The machines remained clean with no sticky residue build-up.
  • Oil drag-out was significantly reduced, lowering overall operating costs.

Based on these results, SUPERCOOL NEAT 240 X was declared their benchmark cutting oil and is now used continuously for long-term production.

Testimonial

We tested cutting oils from several global suppliers, but this was the only one that delivered the results we needed on our sliding head machines. It increased tool life by 25%, eliminated smoke on the shop floor, and gave our components a consistent mirror-like finish. The machines remain cleaner, and our operators now have a much more comfortable working environment.
