What are the applications of external circulation oil chillers?

External circulation oil chillers are mainly used in the industrial field, especially suitable for situations that require cooling oil to maintain normal equipment operation and extend equipment service life.

The following are some typical applications of external circulation oil chillers:

1. Machine tool industry: During the operation of metal cutting equipment such as CNC machine tools, grinders, lathes, and milling machines, the heat generated by the friction between the cutting tools and the workpiece will be transmitted to the cutting fluid or lubricating oil. The external circulation oil cooler can effectively cool these fluids, maintain their ideal viscosity and lubrication effect, thereby ensuring machining accuracy and extending tool life.

2.Plastic molding industry: When the hydraulic system of injection molding machines, extruders and other equipment is working, the temperature of the hydraulic oil will rise, and the external circulation oil cooler is responsible for cooling the hydraulic oil to ensure system stability and product quality.

3. Power and Energy Industry: The insulation oil in generator sets, transformers, and other electrical equipment needs to maintain its temperature within the specified range. Oil coolers can help cool the insulation oil and prevent insulation performance degradation caused by high oil temperatures.

4. Metallurgy and Casting Industry: Metallurgical equipment such as continuous casting machines, rolling mills, etc., their transmission and lubrication systems generate a large amount of heat due to high-temperature operations. Oil coolers are used to cool lubricating oil, reducing equipment wear and failure rates.

5. Aerospace and military equipment: High precision servo systems, turbines, engines, and other equipment generate a large amount of heat during operation. Oil coolers can be used to cool specialized lubricants, ensuring the high-performance operation of equipment.

6. Chemical and pharmaceutical industries: Production equipment such as reactors and mixers often require temperature control of the reaction medium through a circulating oil cooler during the chemical reaction process to maintain the safety and efficiency of the reaction process.

In summary, the external circulation oil cooler is widely used in various mechanical equipment and production processes that require cooling and control of oil temperature. By continuously extracting the heated oil inside the equipment, cooling it and recycling it back into the system, it ensures stable equipment operation and work efficiency, while also extending the service life of the oil and equipment.
