Keeping everything flowing: Fraunhofer IPK relies on FLUIDLYNX
In Germany alone, poor maintenance of machine tools causes annual damages in the high tens of millions — and that doesn’t even include the cost of downtime.
The key question is not whether coolant processes should be automated, but how to do it most effectively. raunhofer IPK in Berlin has learned from past experience. Unplanned downtime of machine tools was a recurring issue. That’s why the institute chose FLUIDLYNX COOLANT. Continuous care and conditioning of the systems by the device ensures consistently high coolant quality. Thanks to FLUIDLYNX and its 24/7 monitoring, unplanned downtime is turned into predictable efficiency.
