Hello,
so we have a Mazak Quick Turn Smart 200M and we filled it up with a semi synthetic coolant. It was okay for a while but all of a sudden the coolant becomes diluted. Oils float to surface, and the % of the concentrate mixture goes down. It's like the concentrate evaporates or something.We had no problems with this coolant before, now all of a sudden it has become a problem.
We also installed an oil skimmer, but oil keep coming back.
Coolant is semi-synthetic, has no cloride, without secondary amines, without formaldehyde and it doesn't foam. The materials we cut are Aluminium 2017 or 2030 and Steel 11SMnPb37. Lubricating oil is OLMAPOLAR 68D, and Hydraulic oil is MOBIL DTE 24 if this helps.
Last year we changed the water source, so judging by the other topics I've read on a similar situation this might be the problem. What substance in water causes the mixture to demulsify? What should I look for?
Thanks for the answers!
