Do you think we do not want to use any die lubricant Why do we spray such a lot? I hate greasy and wet and slippery floor Too much maintenance We are wasting die lube Clothes always get so dirty Shall we look for something new? Open

Let us change from unnecessary to necessary We want to further decrease the die lubricant We do not want to waste any die lube We want to spray behind the slide core properly We want to spray easily We do not want soldering due to die lubricant Let us create something new the door

Water Free Releasing agent WFR Series An effective film is formed under high die temperatures WFR can effectively form a thick film by suppressing the influence of Leidenfrost phenomenon compared with water based lubricant even over 3 C (572 F) die temperature. Water based die lubricant (Dilution ratio 8:1). sec.5 sec.1 sec.3 sec.6 sec.16 sec Water Free Releasing agent Test Condition: 35 (662 F),.5ml droplet Effective and efficient adhesion makes a small amount spray possible. Even with 1/3 less spray amount, WFR adhered 5 times more than water based die lubricant.

Only a small amount of spray with excellent adhesion is needed for good die release. Too much spray and adhesion has a negative effect on costs and product quality.

High performance, environmentally-friendly, quality improvement, cost reduction We would like to provide solutions to various problems which are related with die lubricant. Even a small spray amount gives an excellent anti-soldering performance. WFR has an excellent adhesion performance and low frictional resistance force, therefore it can preserve higher lubricity and releasing ability over 3 C (572 F) range, and prevent soldering problems.

We simulated the possible causes of fire with die lubricants in a die casting factory, and proved that WFR has a very low fire risk. Hydraulic fluid VG46 Water Free Releasing agent

WFR + Electrostatic spray provides a revolutionary step in die casting WFR for Electrostatic spray application WFR-EC Series What is Electrostatic spray? What is WFR for electrostatic spray? Spray particle Existing WFR WFR-EC Series Base oil Active ingredients Auxiliary agent for electrostatic Negatively charged die lubricant adheres to the grounded die Normally it is not possible to use electrostatic application with oil based die lubricant as the oil is an insulator. However, WFR contains the auxiliary agent for electrostatic spray. This enables electrostatic spray and creates a new possibility for die lubricant spray application. Fine spray mist adheres to the die through invisible electrostatic power. Effects of Electrostatic spray application for Die casting With ordinary air spray gun With Electrostatic spray gun Need to spray from many different angles to adhere properly. With electrostatic, can adhere to a wide area from a single spray direction Without Electrostatic Front Side Behind With Electrostatic Die lubricant adhesion efficiency to dies Adhesion efficiency increases with electrostatic spray application, therefore A-21 + Air spray gun 3% Minimum number of spray nozzle Simple spray setting Easy maintenance WFR + Air spray gun 33% WFR-3EC + electrostatic spray gun 78% 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 Adhesion efficiency (%) There are various benefits for using electrostatic application with WFR.

The 4 th generation new die lubricant NPL Series Our concept is a no-soldering, less gas-producing die lubricant WFR series high adhesion efficiency can now be combined into a product incorporating inorganic powder Uniform film thickness and heat insulating effect WFR forms a consistent smooth film regardless of die surface roughness. Die Temperature fluctuates from point to point. NPL-H1 NPL forms a film despite die roughness and unevenness, creates a consistent film. Die temperature fluctuation is smaller. Heat insulating and retaining properties Frictional resistance force (kgf) Die temperature and Frictional resistance force Area with soldering NPL-H1 Plate temperature( C) Inorganic powdered NPL series shows low frictional resistance force under high die temperature, and improves soldering problems. Temp ( C) Die temperature rises after pouring molten aluminum Spray volume :.3ml Molten Aluminum temperature : 67 C (1238 F) Molten aluminum volume : 9 ml NPL-H1 Elapsed time (sec.) The heat transmission from molten aluminum to the die is delayed with inorganic powder. Smooth casting surface WFR-5AP NPL-H1 NPL series containing inorganic powder gives an excellent surface finish compared with ordinary die lubricants due to heat insulation and less gas formation. To utilize the old and historical die coating technology and WFR technology for high pressure die casting process. It is suitable for squeeze casting and Magnesium or Zinc casting which need better metal flow.
