Drawing and Stamping Lubricants

The Harry Miller custom solution eliminated the cost and hassle of juggling three separate lubricants and the need to hand-mix the lubricant. The result was lower fluid costs, higher quality finishes and an improved acceptance rate for the brass parts.

The company needed a water-soluble lubricant to provide ease of mixing, superior lubrication and improved bioresistance. Harry Miller Corps experienced technicians designed a custom formula providing a consistently superior surface finish along with a stable emulsion that had greatly improved bio-stability.

A producer of deep drawn metal eyelets was using an in-house emulsion of three lubricants to manufacture a brass part with a cosmetic finish. Variations in the lubricant mixture prevented a consistent finish on the part and they noted a limited sump life for the lubricant mixture.
