A system for the future

MINIMAL QUANTITY LUBRICATION MQL

Suitable for every application –

The MQL-Systems V5 / V5TWIN and V7 / V7TWIN
LUBRIX MQL-Systems can be used on all kind of machine
tools and machining processes:

• Transfer units
• Portal milling machines
• Turning-milling-centres
• Flexible production systems
• Double-spindle machine tools
• Multi spindel heads (V7 / V7 TWIN)

The experts at LUBRIX work out the optimum strategy for every
tool and every material. To offer each user an ideal solution,
LUBRIX has developed a modular building block concept, which
is used to fit the MQL-System perfectly to the demand of the
process concerning the part, the tools and the machine tool.
The series V5 / V5TWIN and V7 / V7 TWIN are available in different
versions:

• as
 a basic MQL-System including contol unit, process monitoring
and automatic refill system
• w ith or without high pressure modul
• with or without an integrated field bus interface
(PROFIBUS / PROFINET)

Energy and cost savings through LUBRIX MQL

Better on principle
-25% LUBRIX MQL-Systems replace conventional coolant
within modern machining processes. Thanks to
the special technology, the friction between work
piece, chip and tool becomes distinctly reduced.
Because of that, less heat is produced, the tools
last longer, the cutting speeds increase and thus,
the complete process time lowers down. Depending
-20% on the individual machining process, cost savings
up to 30% can be achieved.

The advantages at a glance:

• Energy saving of about 50% compared to coolant
• longer tool life
-15% •
•
preventing of heat build-up on the cutting edge
higher cutting speeds

•
shorter processing times

• dry chip and work pieces
• less space required

Energy savings through LUBRIX MQL

Energy demand of a machine tool, saving potential by implementing LUBRIX MQL-Technology

Pioneer of new technologies for coolant

for drivetrain, machine tool, miscellaneous (saving potential)
LUBRIX is among the pioneers of dry machining and
minimum quantity lubrication. Due to the exclusive Energy
concentration on this technology and the competence
of the employees, very process reliable MQL-Systems are
created that are leading worldwide in regards of both,
process and function technology.

We develop progress Saving on cost with LUBRIX MQL

The special strength of LUBRIX lies in the user-orientated Comparison: Water-soluble coolant vs. minimum quantity lubrication MQL

of the cutting operation, the concentration of oil particles can
be increased or decreased for each tool individually via the
