lõikevedelikke

Lõikevedelikke, also known as cutting fluids, are liquids used to cool and lubricate cutting tools during machining processes. These fluids help extend the life of cutting tools by reducing friction, preventing overheating, and removing chips from the workpiece. They are particularly important in metalworking, woodworking, and other industries that involve cutting and shaping materials.

The primary components of lõikevedelikke include base oils, emulsifiers, and additives. Base oils provide the lubrication and cooling properties, while emulsifiers help blend the oil with water to create a stable emulsion. Additives enhance the fluid's performance by improving its viscosity, corrosion inhibition, and other properties.

There are two main types of lõikevedelikke: oil-based and water-based. Oil-based cutting fluids are typically more effective at cooling and lubricating, but they can be more environmentally harmful due to their high oil content. Water-based fluids, on the other hand, are generally more environmentally friendly but may not provide the same level of cooling and lubrication as oil-based fluids.

The selection of the appropriate lõikevedelik depends on various factors, including the type of material being cut, the cutting tool used, and environmental considerations. Proper use of lõikevedelikke can significantly improve machining efficiency, tool life, and the overall quality of the finished product. However, improper use can lead to issues such as tool wear, reduced cutting performance, and environmental contamination.
