Neat Cutting Oil Filtration Machine

Neat cutting oils are fluids usually based on mineral oils and used for cutting without further dilution i.e. as supplied by the manufacturer. They are generally blends of mineral oils and other additives.

Neat oils can be used for applications from light machining to heavy-duty operations such as Gear hobbing, Broaching, Turning, Honing and Drilling.

Neat Cutting Oils are used in a variety of machining operations e.g. Grinding, Turning, Milling, Broaching, Drilling, Tapping, Gear cutting etc. Primarily to provide cooling and lubrication which lead to good tool life and appropriate surface finish of the components being machined.

Neat Cutting Oils as opposed to soluble or synthetic cutting fluids provide high levels of lubrication to help reduce frictional heat as the cutting tool penetrates the metal or rubs against the swarf. Neat oils also save energy by reducing cutting forces.
