Metal Forming Fluids

BECHEM is a leading worldwide producer of high performance special forming fluids and release agents for various forming processes. Apart from high quality wire drawing fluids, BECHEM also develops forming fluids for forging process, tube drawing process as well deep drawing and punching processes.

Extreme surface pressures and specific frictional forces are critical aspects that effect tool and work piece in a metal forming process. Knowledge of distribution of contact stresses and friction coefficients over the die surface is critical in formulating the right lubricant that has perform under demanding conditions.

Collaborating with end users machine and tool manufacturers, BECHEM has developed the next generation metal working fluids for the entire spectrum of metal working processes.
