MQL Systems
Our Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) systems deliver precise micro-lubrication for metalworking applications. Using compressed air to apply biodegradable lubricants directly at the cutting interface, these systems eliminate flood coolant requirements while extending tool life by 30-40%. Custom-engineered solutions integrate seamlessly with CNC routers, mills, and saws.
Lubricant Supply
We provide specialized biodegradable lubricants formulated for specific materials and applications. Our product line includes NSF H1-registered food-grade options, aluminum-specific formulations, and multi-material lubricants. Available in quantities from 3.2 oz blocks to 330-gallon totes, all products meet EPA safety standards while eliminating residue and disposal concerns.
Custom Engineering
Our in-house engineering team creates tailored MQL solutions using SolidWorks CAD software. We retrofit existing machinery with precision lubrication systems and design custom applicators for specialized applications. This approach reduces third-party dependencies and ensures optimal integration with clients' manufacturing processes while maintaining strict environmental compliance.
Technical Support
We offer comprehensive support for lubricant and system selection through direct consultation with our experts. Our team provides on-site installation guidance, troubleshooting assistance, and performance optimization services. This includes evaluating existing processes to identify efficiency improvements and cost-saving opportunities specific to each client's operations.
Parts Catalog
Our extensive parts inventory includes nozzles, injectors, reservoirs, and control components for MQL systems. We offer standard replacement parts and custom-engineered components to maintain system performance. The catalog covers applicators with capacities from 10 oz to 5 gallons, featuring multiple activation options and nozzle configurations for precise lubricant delivery.
Questions
What is Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL)?
MQL is a precision lubrication technique that applies microscopic amounts of biodegradable lubricant directly at the cutting interface using compressed air, eliminating traditional flood coolants.
How does MagLube's system benefit CNC machining?
Our MQL systems reduce lubricant consumption by 90%, extend tool life by 30-40%, eliminate coolant disposal costs, and improve surface finishes for aluminum and other metals.
Are MagLube lubricants environmentally friendly?
Yes, all our lubricants are biodegradable, non-toxic, and eliminate hazardous waste disposal requirements while meeting EPA and NSF safety standards.
Can MQL systems work with existing machinery?
We specialize in retrofitting MQL systems to existing CNC routers, mills, saws, and stamping equipment using custom-engineered solutions designed specifically for your machinery.
What lubricant options are available?
We offer specialized formulations including LD-300L for aluminum, HD-100 for general metalworking, FC-500 food-grade lubricant, and handheld application options in multiple container sizes.

Report
We have a fairly small metalworking shop. We'd always used flood coolants on our bandsaw and CNC machines. It worked but was very messy and required a lot of cleaning up every day. We switched to MagLube's MQL systems and the results are incredible. We're getting better cuts and now it only takes about a minute to wipe down the machines after a run. It's also saving us a lot of money on coolants. I'll never use another lubrication system other than MagLube from now on.
