This presentation will share the methods that David Kinnard recommends when helping Tower Metalworking Fluids customers consolidate the lubricants used in their stamping facilities. Kinnard frequently visits pressrooms and sees several different stamping fluids being used for similar applications. More often than not, these can be consolidated down to a few, if not just one lubricant designed to meet many needs. Kinnard will discuss performance pre-screening methods and activities that can be completed outside of the plant prior to testing on actual parts, saving valuable press time and material. Throughout this presentation, he will focus on how to minimize health and safety concerns during the consolidation process. This not only will include an emphasis on safer lubricants but also safer processes. He also will cover the GHS labeling system for containers, review how to improve lubricant application and share a few case studies.
