Mobile Die Lubricant Proportioner

QH FLUIDCAST™ DUAL

The QH FLUIDCAST™ DUAL is an advanced mobile die lubricant delivery system with two dedicated outputs for conventional water based and MQL lubricants. The system has the flexibility to apply both product types at the same time to different die casting cells.

For conventional lubricants, the system is capable of delivering lubricant mixture up to a peak flow rate of 30 litres (7.9 gallons) per minute at 7.5 bar, or a continuous delivery volume of 16 litres (4.2 gallons) per minute. The unit has a 50 litre discharge pressure tank, and a mixing tank holding 30 litres of premixed lubricant.

The system batch mixes water and neat lubricant components and ensures accurate and repeatable mix composition through continual measurement of added component quantity and real time turbidity of the final mix.

The system is designed to accurately measure and control die lubricaction application volume to the die face with an accuracy of 0.01%.

For MQL die lubricants, the QH FLUIDCAST™ DUAL can deliver up to 1.7 litres of water based or water free lubricant per minute, with an accuracy of 0.02%.

The system can also be operated in a unique hybrid mode. The system is PLC driven with HMI for quick and easy access to all settings and parameters. Data is logged for every shot made and available through the HMI, or can be uploaded or made accessible through networking systems.
