“We are getting excellent tap life with this system”

“In February, we purchased our first Unist Serv-O-Spray. We purchased the unit in hopes it would help solve a problem. We were having to run parts in a basket to let the oil drain before packaging, and reduce the amount of oil on the floor around the tapper. We started using the Serv-O-Spray in March of that year. The parts were much cleaner and we found that we were using much less lubricant and the taps were lasting longer. We were also able to increase our production by eliminating the need to drain the parts before packing. We updated our second tapper in February of 2000 with the same results as the first one. In September of 2000 we quoted a job that had in die tapping. We chose to try the Unist Serv-O-Spray instead of flooding the tooling with lubricant. We tap 8 holes in a progressive die at 60 SPM. We are getting excellent tap life with this system. We also have a forming problem with a progressive die that runs .250 thick material. We had a problem keeping lube on one form station that was causing us a lot of maintenance time. We installed a Serv-O-Spray and shot a few drops or lubricant on the strip at the bend station solving the maintenance problem.”
