QH FLUID INTELLIGENCE™
Quaker Houghton combines high-performance fluids, real-time digital intelligence, and application expertise to optimize every step of your production chain. Combined with QH FLUIDCARE™ on site service programs, these factors maximize process output while minimizing cost per unit produced.
Precise fluid selection for every application, standardized with QH FLUID INTELLIGENCE™ to deliver repeatable, OEM-level quality.
Real-time monitoring identifies waste patterns and optimizes usage — lowering total operating costs without sacrificing output.
Automated fluid condition control keeps processes consistent, reducing defects, rework, and unplanned downtime.
Optimized process parameters, low-temperature cleaning technologies, and scrap reduction deliver measurable energy savings.
Fire-resistant fluids, risk assessments, and site-specific safety protocols keep you protected and compliant.
Reduce mineral oil dependency and minimize waste, consumption, and health hazards — without compromising performance.
Producing high-performance engine components demands precision at every stage. Quaker Houghton delivers end-to-end fluid solutions across the full ICE and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) value chain: die casting, forging, machining, cleaning and surface preparation. Our advanced fluids increase productivity, improve dimensional accuracy, and extend long-term component reliability.
Quaker Houghton’s fluid portfolio covers every step of aluminum wheel production, with purpose-built solutions at each stage. HFDU and HFC fluids handle die casting with proven fire resistance and thermal stability, while specialized coolants, cleaners, and impregnation sealants carry parts through the remaining stages, surface treatment ready.
The right supplier must deliver deep, integrated expertise at every stage of the aluminum housing manufacturing process.
Quaker Houghton provides high-performance die release agents and precision machining fluids to enable the most complex die cast component production, together with cleaners and best-in-class porosity sealing solutions that provide a permanent seal to micro porosity and leak paths. Global R&D centers and application engineers back every recommendation.
