The Mixtron dosing pump locking collar is a security accessory designed to prevent unauthorised or accidental changes to your fluid dilution settings. By securing the adjustment mechanism, it ensures a consistent coolant concentration, which is critical for maintaining CNC machine performance, extending tool life and reducing coolant waste.
Installing the Mixtron locking collar is a simple process: slide the collar over the dosing adjustment sleeve and secure it in place using a small padlock (not included). This physical barrier prevents the sleeve from being turned, locking in your required ratio for improved process reliability and compliance.
Yes. By preventing “dilution tampering,” the Mixtron locking collar ensures that expensive concentrates are not over-used and that machines do not run on lean mixtures that cause corrosion or tool breakage. Maintaining a stable, locked-in ratio leads to more predictable fluid costs and better record-keeping for health and safety compliance.
