Molygraph GRAPHOL® GFL 6000 PLUS improves performance and productivity by providing a superior alternative to conventional die forging lubricants.

This manufacturer specializes in producing open and closed die forgings crafted from a range of materials, including carbon and alloy steel, micro-alloy steel, and stainless steel. Their clientele spans across diverse industries, such as Automotive, Railways, Farm Equipment, Bearings, Oil & Gas, Power, Construction, and Earth Moving & Mining applications. The dies they provide are forged, heat-treated, machined, and fully assembled to meet specific requirements.

However, the manufacturer encountered several challenges in their production process, including issues with uneven coating, the accumulation of hard residue, and components adhering to the die. Additionally, the manufacturing process resulted in the generation of smoke with a pungent odor.

Faced with these challenges, the manufacturer sought a solution and turned to Molygraph for assistance. Our team of technical experts recommended the use of GRAPHOL GFL 6000 PLUS, a high-performance graphite-based hot forging die lubricant, to address these issues.

• During the initial test run on the 2 Press Forge Machine with GRAPHOL® GFL 6000 PLUS, the customer observed that the earlier challenges faced were successfully resolved. There were no issues of sticking, residue deposition, or smoke generation.
• After a long trial of 7 months, the product has been deployed.
• Molygraph with its on-time delivery became the preferred supplier.
