Biol Universal Metalworking Fluid / Cutting fluid Biol U

Water-soluble cutting fluid BIOL-UNIVERSAL

Biol Universal is a synthetic water-miscible metalworking fluid supplied as a concentrate for preparing working solutions. It is a universal synthetic metalworking fluid of the standard class for most typical metalworking operations.
Within the three-level classification economy — standard — premium, this product belongs to the standard class. This means that Biol Universal is intended for everyday industrial use where normal lubricating properties, low foaming, stable working-solution performance, corrosion protection, and suitability for a wide range of standard machining operations are required.
Biol Universal is not an economy-class product with minimal functionality, and it is not a narrowly specialized premium fluid for all heavy-duty machining conditions. It is a practical universal synthetic fluid for standard production tasks.
In this case, the word “universal” means that the product is suitable for a wide range of typical machining operations when the concentration is selected correctly and the working solution is maintained properly. It does not mean that the product is equally suitable for any metal, any machining regime, or any operating condition without limitations.

Purpose

Biol Universal is used for:

• preparing working metalworking-fluid solutions for mechanical metalworking;
• drilling;
• turning;
• milling;
• grinding;
• boring;
• tool sharpening;
• polishing;
• honing;
• other typical metalworking operations

Where it is used

Biol Universal is used:

• at machine-building enterprises;
• in metalworking shops;
• on drilling, turning, milling, and grinding machines;
• in production where one universal synthetic fluid is needed for standard operations;
• in circulating or local feed systems, provided that the working solution is properly maintained.

Recommended concentration of the working solution:

1. Grinding-3-5%
2. Turning-5%
3. Drilling-5%
4. Deep drilling-7-10%
5. Drawing 7-10%
6. Milling-5%
7. Boring-5-7%
8. Grinding tools 5-7%
9. Polishing-3-5%
10. Honing 7-10%

Main properties

Biol Universal is a synthetic standard-class metalworking fluid. Its main properties are:

• synthetic water-miscible formulation;
• concentrate for preparing a working solution;
• high lubricating properties;
• low foaming;
• free from chlorine-containing and sulfur-containing additives, nitrites, and phenols;
• resistance to corrosion and biological contamination when recommended concentrations are maintained;
• easy mixing with water;
• suitability for a wide range of typical metalworking operations

Suitable materials

Biol Universal is suitable for machining:

• ferrous metals;
• cast iron;
• low-alloy steels;
• high-alloy steels;
• stainless steels;
• certain typical operations on aluminum, provided that the machining conditions and concentration are selected correctly.

Important clarification on water and operation

As a synthetic metalworking fluid, Biol Universal is more stable in operation and less dependent on water quality than oil-containing emulsion metalworking fluids. This is one of the practical advantages of a synthetic standard-class product.

At the same time, water quality still affects:

• working-solution stability;
• foaming level;
• machining cleanliness;
• service life of the working bath;
• overall system stability.

When using the product, it is necessary to control:

• working-solution concentration;
• water quality;
• system condition;
• make-up conditions;
• suitability of the product for the specific operation and machined material.

Who this metalworking fluid is suitable for

Biol Universal is suitable for enterprises and production facilities that need:

• a universal synthetic metalworking fluid for typical machining operations;
• one working fluid for everyday industrial use;
• a standard-class metalworking fluid without moving into the minimum-cost or narrowly specialized segment;
• a low-foaming synthetic metalworking-fluid concentrate;
• a practical solution for turning, milling, drilling, and grinding operations

Advantages

1. universal synthetic metalworking fluid of the standard class;
2. broad range of typical machining applications;
3. clear recommended concentrations;
4. low foaming;
5. high lubricating properties;
6. lower dependence on water quality compared with oil-containing emulsion metalworking fluids;
7. resistance to corrosion and biological contamination when used correctly;
8. suitability for daily industrial operation.
