Problem:

“Millions of workers engaged in the manufacture of automobiles, farm equipment, aircraft, heavy machinery, and other hardware are exposed to machining fluids.  Occupational exposure to these fluids has resulted in various cancers, respiratory diseases, and skin problems.  …In order to improve worker protection, OSHA in designating the metalworking/machining fluid expose as a priority for comprehensive rulemaking”
US Department of Labor

Advances in modern CNC machines have increased productivity and increased the need for better lubrication in order to keep up with the faster spindle speeds and demands of today’s machine tools.  These advances have also led to an increase in metalworking fluids being generated and emitted into the air.  These airborne metalworking fluids can pose a serious health threat to the employees in the metal working industry and is a priority focus of OSHA.  Click here for informative articles on metalworking fluids and mist collectors.
