Abstract: As an important auxiliary material in metal processing, Cutting Oil has a large price difference. Choosing the right Cutting Oil is of great significance for controlling production costs and improving processing quality. This article will analyze the price factors of Cutting Oil and provide selection suggestions to help enterprises reasonably purchase cutting oil and achieve a win-win situation of cost and benefit.
1. Reasons for the difference in cutting oil prices
Base oil type: The base oil of cutting oil is divided into mineral oil, synthetic oil and vegetable oil, etc. The cost of different types of base oil varies greatly, which directly affects the price of cutting oil.
Additive type: The additives in cutting oil include extreme pressure agents, anti-wear agents, antioxidants, preservatives, etc. The type and content of additives are different, and the price will also vary.
Production process: Different production processes and equipment investment will also affect the price of cutting oil. Advanced production processes and equipment can improve product quality, but will increase production costs accordingly.
Brand influence: Cutting Oils of well-known brands are often more expensive, which is related to their brand value, market positioning and service system.
Packaging and transportation: factors such as the choice of packaging materials, packaging specifications, and transportation distance will also affect the price of cutting oil.
2. Cutting oil price comparison method
Unit cost comparison: Calculate the price per liter of cutting oil and compare the unit cost of cutting oils of different brands and models.
Cost-effectiveness analysis: Evaluate the performance indicators of cutting oil, such as lubricity, cooling, and rust prevention, compare with the price, and select products with high cost-effectiveness.
Total cost of ownership (TCO): Consider factors such as the service life, maintenance cost, and replacement frequency of cutting oil, calculate the total cost of ownership, and select products with lower long-term costs.
3. Cutting oil selection suggestions
Clear processing requirements: Determine the performance indicators of the required cutting oil based on workpiece materials, processing technology, equipment requirements, etc.
Choose the right base oil type: For general metal processing, mineral oil-based cutting oil can meet the needs; for special processing environments, such as high-speed and high-precision processing, synthetic oil or vegetable oil-based cutting oil may be required.
Focus on additive performance: Choose cutting oil containing high-efficiency additives to provide better lubrication, cooling, and rust prevention.
Consider environmental protection and safety: Choose environmentally friendly cutting oil to reduce harm to the environment and operators.
Brand selection: Within the budget, you can choose a reputable and well-serviced brand to ensure product quality and after-sales service.
Field investigation and sample testing: Before deciding to purchase, you can ask the manufacturer to provide samples for testing to evaluate whether its performance meets the requirements.
Purchasing strategy: According to production needs, reasonably plan the purchase quantity and frequency to avoid capital occupation and cutting oil deterioration caused by excessive inventory.
Summary
The price comparison and selection of cutting oil is a comprehensive consideration process. Enterprises should find cost-effective cutting oil products through scientific comparison and reasonable selection based on a full understanding of their own processing needs. The correct choice of cutting oil can not only improve processing efficiency and quality, but also effectively control production costs and create greater economic benefits for enterprises. Through the suggestions of this article, it is hoped that enterprises can make more wise decisions on the purchase of cutting oil.
