PROJECT ARISEN - Innovation in Lubrication for Sustainable Manufacturing

  • Metalworking fluids are crucial products in machining processes. They act by minimizing friction at the work-tool interface and serve as a cooling agent to prevent energy and heat loss. They also protect machines against corrosion, prolonging the life of machine parts and increasing production efficiency.
  • With the rapid growth of industrialization, global demand for these fluids has increased exponentially. However, most cutting oils consist of petroleum products that are toxic, non-biodegradable and harmful to the environment.
  • The growing concern for the preservation of the environment along with the scarcity of oil reserves and the need to reduce dependence on petroleum products have led to the search for alternative lubrication fluids based on renewable sources. The development of biolubricants is a reasonable approach to resolving environmental concerns and achieving sustainability goals.
  • This is where the ARISEN project comes in.
  • ARISEN is a transdisciplinary project that combines the complementary skills and capabilities of a Turkish lubricant manufacturer, BELGIN OIL, CENTIMFE - Technology Center for the Mould, Special Tools and Plastics Industry and TOOLPRESSE as an industrial machining company and as an end user.
  • The aim of the project is to develop a biodegradable lubricant, hoping to have a positive impact on the entire metal processing sector, making its production more environmentally friendly and sustainable.
  • Over the last few years, the consortium has researched, designed and developed a formulation, carrying out the corresponding machining tests in preliminary trials, from which it selected the product with the best machining performance on all the metal alloys studied. The pilot production phase is currently underway, which will result in the validation of the final product and the production of small batches and their final validation, cost assessment and environmental impact analysis.
