Oelheld’s IonoPlus series of high-performance dielectrics were created to handle the highest demands on die-sinking electrical discharge machining (EDM). These cooling lubricants are suitable for all requirements during spark erosion — from roughing work to ultrafine finishing.
The coolant is suitable for EDM (also known as spark erosion machining) which is a nontraditional method of removing metal by a series of rapidly recurring electrical discharges (that are the equivalent of tiny lightning bolts) between an electrode (the cutting tool) and the workpiece in the presence of dielectric fluid.
The coolant is said to offer increased removal rates, lower electrode wear, excellent surface qualities, lower refill quantities and longevity which all work to ensure lower overall operating costs. The lubricant is also odorless with good filterability and low evaporation.
The almost odorless and green dielectric fulfills all requirements from finishing to roughing machining. Using a sophisticated production method, the synthetic product is manufactured in a special blending process.
The IonoPlus series does not fall under the operational safety regulations and can be easily filtered with all common filtration systems.

Why Are We Writing About a Shop Making Custom Baseball Bats?
I recently learned about a 153-year-old manufacturer that has produced billions upon billions of precision, metal pins which started another business making one-off wooden baseball bats. (Like I asked it to do for me and you’ll see at this year’s Precision Machining Technology Show). Here I explain why it’s worth the time to read that article.
