In today’s advanced manufacturing landscape, proactive coolant management isn’t just a good practice — it’s a competitive advantage. Inadequate coolant control results in premature tool wear, inconsistent surface finishes, unscheduled downtime, and escalating waste management costs. That’s why leading manufacturers across the globe are embracing intelligent, data-driven coolant solutions to optimise performance, ensure process consistency, and reduce total operating costs.

MAKoolGuard is our end-to-end coolant management system, engineered to bring precision, cleanliness, and efficiency to every stage of your metalworking operations — empowering your shop floor with the same reliability and innovation trusted by global industry leaders.

• Initial Assessment & System Setup
  • Coolant Type Selection: Soluble, Semi-synthetic, or Synthetic, based on materials, machining intensity, and water quality.
  • System Audit: Understand machine condition, sump design, filtration, and historical issues.
  • Set Coolant Parameters: Determine optimal coolant concentration, pH, etc.
• Routine Monitoring and On-Site Testing
  • Coolant Concentration Testing: Measure the concentration of the coolant to ensure it is within the optimal range.
  • Contamination Monitoring: Regularly check for contaminants such as dirt, metal particles, oil, or biological growth.
  • pH Level Testing: Ensure the coolant’s pH is maintained within the recommended range.
  • Microbial Growth Monitoring: Test for the presence of bacteria or fungi that can cause the coolant to spoil.
• Corrective and Preventive Actions
  • Concentration adjustment if the coolant concentration is too low or too high
  • Periodic cleaning of filters to remove particles and contaminants
  • pH boosters and Biocide Treatment as required
  • Remove tramp oil using skimmers or separators.
  • Periodically top up the coolant system to ensure proper levels
  • Coolant replacement, when it becomes too contaminated or when it no longer meets performance standards.
• Documentation, Diagnostics & Reporting
  • Log Monitoring Data: Maintain records of coolant tests, concentrations, adjustments, and maintenance activities to track the condition over time.
  • Analyse Trends: Review historical data to identify patterns of coolant deterioration or contamination and suggestion on improving the maintenance strategy accordingly.
  • Report to Stakeholders: Provide regular updates on coolant health, performance, and actions taken to management
• Continuous Improvement & Training
  • Optimise Coolant Usage: Continuously analyse coolant performance and make adjustments to reduce waste and maximise coolant life.
  • Staff Training: Train maintenance teams on best practices for coolant management, ensuring they understand how to properly monitor and maintain the coolant system.
  • Recommendation of equipment upgrades for automatic mixing, filtration, and waste recovery.
