Oelheld Coolant Increases Metal Removal Rates

Oelheld’s IonoPlus series of high-performance dielectrics were created to handle the highest demands on die-sinking electrical discharge machining (EDM). These cooling lubricants are suitable for all requirements during spark erosion — from roughing work to ultrafine finishing.

The coolant is suitable for EDM, a nontraditional method of removing metal by a series of rapidly recurring electrical discharges between an electrode and the workpiece in the presence of dielectric fluid. 

The coolant is said to offer increased removal rates, lower electrode wear, excellent surface qualities, lower refill quantities and longevity, which all work to ensure lower overall operating  costs. The lubricant is also odorless with good filterability and low evaporation.

The almost odorless and green dielectric fulfills all requirements from finishing to roughing machining. Using a specialized production method, the synthetic product is manufactured in a special blending process.

The IonoPlus series does not fall under the operational safety regulations and can be easily filtered with all common filtration systems.
