Monitoring and record keeping is key to healthy metalworking fluid, it’s no more a secret.  But the challenge is executing.  As a shop manager I have thousands of things to do. Shall I concentrate on my core job of machining components or keep checking and recording concentration, pH, hardness, and what ever else the fluid manufacturer tells me to do.

If you are one of these busy shop managers looking for a high tech real time system to do this job, Castrol System RT is a possible answer. It’s a "real time" automated monitoring system for metalworking fluids.  The compilation of this technology has been available, but it is rarely packaged.  Castorl's system brings you real time reports on precise chemical profile of the MWF.  This efficient system gives you trending and reports of historical data as well.  But how much does it cost and is it really worth investing?  You will need to check with Castrol.
