Water-based metalworking fluid aims to to make its pH value, concentration ratio, amount ofbacteria and other technical indicators in the set range so as to prolong theservice life. Even if there is good performancewater-based metal working fluid, if there is no attention paid to dailymaintenance and management, it also cannot keep a long-term performance, andwill shorten the service life; and the general performance of the water-basedmetal working fluid, such as attention to maintenance management, also itsperformance to maintain long-term. Simple daily maintenance of water-basedmetal working fluid must be based on following methods:
