We're in the process of updating and upgrading our PROCARE reporting services, both on customer sites and the electronic reports emailed through following a visit.
Sometimes it's the little things that make a big difference, for example all our machine record cards now clearly state the following useful information;
β
οΈ Machine name / reference
β
οΈ Coolant type (some sites run more than one type)
β
οΈ Recommended refractometer range
β
οΈ Refractometer correction factor / index
β
οΈ Actual concentration range
β
οΈ Sump capacity
β
οΈ How much Bioflush to add prior to a full clean out
β
οΈ How much Biotect to add to control bacteria if advised
The above is to assist with good and safe management of your metalworking fluids, and the changes we're making emphasises our commitment to ensure we're constantly reviewing and refining our services to give our customers the best service and advice.

βWe'd had problems with our coolant for years. After arranging a site visit with baggaleyshaun he explained the reasons for the problem & what the technical team could do to remedy it. The implementation of the coolant management board has also been a success & has impressed many of the quality personnel we have auditing us. Not to mention the peace of mind it brings if HSE visit.β π

πΆ "And it was all yellow"
Just a couple of 25 litre drums delivered to Pennine HQ this morning all ready to be filled with the good stuff!
Another week another new customer converted!
BM Injection got the PROCARE treatment this week with 5 machines cleaned out and converted on to Pencool Ultra S325 which will be monitored every month using our PROCARE Self Serv package π
Despite investing in a new very cool custom coloured π¨ Freddy Micro Plus recently, they wanted all the machines deep cleaning by the professionals so they can use Fred to maintain the sumps and keep the new coolant in top condition going forward.
We have also installed a Mixtron doser meaning they can top up directly in to the machines now, no more Jack and Jill buckets and a stick! π

We received these beautiful snaps from two of our beloved Sales team who had the pleasure of visiting one of our customers in North Wales today, and pulled up at this beauty spot for a bit of lunch.
Now, not that we were envious or anything but as the saying goes, "revenge is a dish best served cold"......wonder who's getting volunteered for a rather fruity machine clean we've got coming soon?! π π€π€·ββοΈ

Before you go.....
Before you go home for a well deserved Christmas break, here's a few handy tips and hints to help your coolant survive while you're away stuffing your face with turkey π¦ and mince pies π₯§
π If you have a Freddy vac, consider carrying out a full empty, filter and return to the sump so any contaminants which would support bacterial growth are removed.
π
Use your Freddy to skim off any free tramp oil so that oxygen isn't trapped in the sump. If it is, it may "flip" and become anaerobic bacteria which will start to degrade the coolant, and you might come back to something that smells like rotting turkey giblets. π€’
βοΈ Increase the strength of the coolant to the higher end of the manufacturers recommended scale, this will improve bacterial resistance during a period of lay up.
π€Ά consider adding a fluid conditioner or biocide at the start of your last shift before shutdown. This will control or kill off bacteria and hopefully prevent you coming back to something that resembles that left over Stilton at the back of your fridge π·. Always double check the dosage rate and carefully calculate how much you need to add to each machine and DONT be tempted to overdose as this will cause issues on your return.
Once again, this free advice is brought to you by those friendly folk at Pennine, we hope we've done enough this year to make it on to Santa's π
good list! π€π
Merry Christmas! π
