ORA 10BA - Analogue refractometers

Application Description

Measurement of the drilling water for its composition, crucial for smooth machining of the workpiece

Additional information

Measuring the composition of the drilling water by determining the refractive index. This drilling water, also called drilling milk, is used in manufacturing technology when cutting and reshaping on machine tools to dissipate heat and reduce friction between tool and workpiece through lubrication. For this drilling water, a water / oil emulsion plus other important ingredients, the correct mixing ratio is crucial for smooth processing of the workpiece and thus prevents overheating and possible production stoppages
