Deionized Water for Coolant Dilution in Machine Shops

Jul 10, 2023  ยท  2 min read

Equipment: Deionized / distilled water systems

Applications: Milling machines, CNC machines, waterjet machines, automatic CNC milling machines, generators

If you run equipment that uses coolant while milling or machining, you already know the coolant has to be diluted with water. What’s less widely understood is how much the quality of that water matters.

Poor water quality in a coolant solution causes excess foaming, and it leaves scale and mineral deposits behind on the machined parts themselves. On tight-tolerance work that is a scrap problem, not a housekeeping one.

Deionized water removes the dissolved minerals that cause both issues, so the coolant performs as the manufacturer intended and the finish comes out clean.

We offer affordable small-scale systems with low upfront cost, as well as large-scale solutions that have saved customers thousands of dollars a year in operating costs compared with buying distilled water or running manufacturer-supplied filtration.
