Unist systems dispense a narrow stream of atomized lubrication called minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) or near-dry machining.
MQL keeps cutting tools at optimal temperatures without the mess of flood coolant by reducing friction. Minimum quantity lubrication can improve tool life and surface finishes using only a fraction of the fluid.
Eliminate flood coolant
Unist minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) systems deliver precise cutting tool lubrication for CNC milling operations. Say goodbye to the coolant mess and extend tool life.

How Unist MQL works on CNC mills
How does Unist deliver machining benefits with less fluid? We take a different approach:
Minimum Quantity Lubrication
Specialized Lubricants
Our Coolube products are high performance lubricants. We take renewable, plant-based materials and refine them to very high levels of purity.
The polar properties of Coolube create a high level of adhesion to metal surfaces and incredible friction-reducing capabilities.
Offered in several formulations, Coolube is a great option for machining ferrous, non-ferrous, and plastic materials. Coolube is so effective, you’ll be amazed at how little you need!
Machine Integration
Unist MQL systems are designed with flexibility in mind, recognizing that lubrication needs for CNC jobs vary. Our systems allow you to independently control up to 12 fluid or air outputs.
Offering CNC controls integration, Unist systems can be configured to run as seamlessly as you choose.
