QAre you still troubled by these issues?
A
Abnormal acceleration of tool wear and uneven surface quality during machining, unable to find the exact cause?
Is it time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors to manually check the concentration of cutting fluid at regular intervals?
Low concentration, insufficient cooling and lubrication; High concentration, waste of concentrated solution and easy foaming and odor?
Sudden loss of concentration control, resulting in batch scrap of workpieces or equipment shutdown, causing severe losses?
Cutting fluid concentration
The difficult problem of "blood" management in machine tool processing
Cutting fluid is known as the "blood" of machine tool machining, and its concentration directly determines the lubrication, cooling, rust prevention, and chip removal performance. Low concentration, like "anemia", leads to increased tool wear, rough workpiece surface, and even rust; If the concentration is too high, it will be like "blood viscous", which will not only waste expensive concentrate, but also may cause foam and bacteria breeding, affecting the processing environment and equipment life.

The traditional manual handheld refractometer detection method is like a "blind person touching an elephant"
Lag: unable to reflect concentration changes in real time, it is too late to detect problems.
One sidedness: Sampling points may not necessarily represent the overall concentration of the tank solution.
Low efficiency: labor-intensive and difficult to cover multiple devices.
Large error: significantly affected by operator experience, environmental temperature, and oil pollution.

Chaohui Online Refractometer
Machine tool cutting fluid concentration "full-time guardian"
Chaohui has been deeply involved in the field of industrial process measurement for many years and has launched a series of high-performance online refractometers, specifically designed to solve the pain points of cutting fluid concentration monitoring in the machine tool industry! It is like installing a "smart eye" and "warning radar" for your cutting fluid tank, providing accurate and real-time concentration data 24/7 without interruption.
Visible benefits, calculated returns
Real time and precise monitoring, bidding farewell to the risk of losing control:
Chaohui online refractometer adopts high-precision ATR prism technology, combined with advanced temperature compensation algorithm, which can measure cutting fluid concentration in real-time, continuously and accurately even in complex workshop environments (typical accuracy ± 0.3%).
The data is instantly displayed on the local transmitter or uploaded to your PLC/SCADA system, with clear concentration fluctuations and no hidden risks.
Stable machining quality and extended tool life:
Ensure that the cutting fluid concentration remains stable within the optimal range required by the process, providing constant lubrication and cooling performance.
Significantly reduce abnormal tool wear, extend tool life by up to 15% -30%, and significantly reduce tool costs.
Improve the surface smoothness and dimensional accuracy consistency of workpiece processing, and reduce the scrap rate.
Optimize the use of cutting fluid and reduce overall costs:
Avoid excessive concentration: reduce the waste of excessive addition of concentrated solution.
Prevent low concentration: Avoid premature failure and scrapping of the entire tank solution due to insufficient concentration, and extend the service life of the tank solution.
Accurate fluid replacement: It can easily integrate an automatic replenishment system to achieve intelligent concentration management and save manual operation costs.
Intelligent alarm linkage to prevent problems in advance:
Free setting of upper and lower limit alarm values for concentration. Once the concentration deviates from the safe range, it will immediately trigger an audible and visual alarm or control relevant equipment through relay output (such as shutdown protection), or link with the automatic fluid replenishment system for intervention.
Remote monitoring: Supports communication protocols such as Modbus, and data can be connected to the factory MES/IIoT platform to achieve remote centralized monitoring and management, improving management efficiency.
Chaohui online refractometer has the advantage of "hard core", specially designed for harsh machine tool environments:
Durable and resistant to oil stains:The sensor probe is made of high-quality stainless steel (such as 316L) or special alloy material, with a high protection level (IP67/IP68), and can withstand cutting fluid corrosion, oil splashing, and harsh workshop environments.
Intelligent anti fouling design (key!):Chaohui provides various solutions to the problem of oil stains and impurity adhesion in cutting fluids:
Optional ultrasonic cleaning function:Regularly clean the prism surface automatically to maintain measurement accuracy.
Special coating or mechanical scraper (specific model):Effectively resist the adhesion of oil stains.
Recommended bypass installation:By using a circulating filtration system, the direct impact of impurities in the main slot on the probe is reduced, resulting in more stable and reliable measurements.
Flexible installation and easy maintenance:Support direct immersion or better bypass circulation installation. The transmitter design is simple, with convenient parameter setting and calibration.
Localization services and support:Shanghai Chaohui has a professional sales and technical team that provides selection guidance, installation and commissioning, technical training, and timely after-sales service guarantee.
