Leading Precision Engineering Firm Cuts CNC Maintenance Costs by 55% with AzureChuck Paste

About the company

A well-regarded company in the precision engineering and manufacturing sector, located in Western India, was focused on optimizing operational efficiency across its CNC machining operations.

The Challenge

The company was experiencing persistent issues with its CNC chuck lubrication—despite using a reputed market product. Machines required chuck greasing twice a week, yet problems such as noise, corrosion, and high maintenance costs persisted. With 10 machines, monthly lubrication costs reached ₹640 per CNC, driving up annual maintenance expenses.

The Solution

Lubeco’s technical team recommended a trial of Azure Chuck Paste. A 1 kg sample was applied across all 10 CNC machines and monitored over a 4-week trial period.

The Results

  • Noise reduced to zero
  • Improved corrosion resistance and smoother operation
  • Relube frequency reduced from twice to once per week
  • Monthly savings of ₹360 per CNC, translating to ₹43,000 annually
  • Based on these compelling results, the company transitioned fully to Azure Chuck
    Paste as its standard chuck lubrication solution.
