DESCRIPTION
Release Agent for Non-ferrous Extrusion
46 ILX EJECTEZE is a medium viscosity, water miscible fluid concentrate used to reduce or eliminate sticking and metal build-up of non-ferrous metals onto hot tool steels used in the direct and indirect extrusion process. Primary applications include dummy blocks, billet ends, die rings, container rings, and billet scalpers, as these areas are typically accessible for direct spray coating with the aid of a moving assembly.
This product is to be diluted with water and spray applied to one or both sides of all metal / tooling contact interfaces. Once applied to a hot metal surface,
the water carrier evaporates and 46 ILX EJECTEZE imparts a dry film residue that acts as a parting compound between the extrusion alloy and the related tool steel. As the solid film does not migrate, successful implementation of this product is highly dependent upon proper design and implementation of the spray equipment.
This product does not contain graphite, boron nitride, silicone, heavy metals, metal soaps, phosphorus, or other related chemicals that might adversely affect extrusion process safety or performance.
ADVANTAGES
• Stable as received and when mixed with water
• Extremely quick application, will not affect dead cycle time
• In-process, automated lubrication possible
• Blistering and inclusions are reduced or eliminated
• Superior release and lubrication properties
• Freeze/ thaw stable in shipping
METHOD OF APPLICATION AND CLEANING
46 ILX EJECTEZE performs best when applied with a Model 3063 Spray System, which employs a slow rotating nozzle to coat round and ring patterned details with an extremely light coating in only a few seconds. A manual spray wand or application specific spray apparatus is suggested for areas not well suited to the Model 3063 rotating nozzle pattern.
This product is to be diluted with up to five parts water, depending upon spray dimensions, equipment design, and related temperatures. A refractometer is recommended to insure proper dilution monitoring and adjustment. Several items of interest should be reviewed prior to using 46 ILX EJECTEZE:
1. This product should not be sprayed in the extrusion die. 2. Parting compounds should be applied with each billet. 3. Clean-out blocks may help eliminate lubricant and metal build up in the container. 4. Mix thoroughly prior to use. 5. Clean overspray regularly to avoid build up that may result in drying of moving parts. Re-oil affected
areas to avoid premature wear.
46 ILX EJECTEZE may be removed using an industrial alkaline cleaner.

AUTOMATIC BUTT SHEAR AND LOG SHEAR LUBRICATION SYSTEMS
USING BL 463 2S EJECTEZE AND THE MODEL 3049 DISPENSING SYSTEMS
Historically, butt discard shears and logs shears have been manually lu
bricated on an irregular basis. Arguably, when properly engineered and
maintained, both require very little (or possibly no) lubrication. In fact,
many of the early designs did not even consider lubrication.
It is now well documented that proper lubrication of butt discard shears
and log shears in the production environment is required. The best way
to insure proper lubrication is to automatically lubricate. AM COL offers a
systematic approach with a lubricant and applicator specifically designed
for hot shearing.
BL 463 2S EJECTEZE is a water based and water dilutable liquid that coats tools completely with capillary action, leaving only a
light oily residue. There is no smoke or flame and no known effects on the extrudate.
The AMCOL Mode/3049 Spray System can be fitted to a butt shear or log shear with magnetically mounted atomizing nozzles that
have a variety of spray nozzles and extensions to spray these hard to reach places. System actuation includes an air blow out of
spray tubes to eliminate clogging in high heat areas.
PS01.BL4632S+3049 (R2), 8/ 2013, AFU , Page 1
Benefits of Automatic Shear Lubrication:
Reduce or Eliminate Stuck Billets and Butts - for less down time and more up time. It keeps build up from occurring, which ultimately leads to the sticking.
Minimize Operator Intervention - automatic lubrication is repeatable and reliable . With full press guarding, automation is a requirement.
Extends Shear Life - shear tools last longer, however the true benefit is in the reduced wear on ways and cylinders.

DESCRIPTION
Lubricant for Hot Shearing of Aluminum
BL 463 2S EJECTEZE is a medium viscosity, water miscible lubricant used to reduce or eliminate metal build-up in hot shearing of aluminum and other non-ferrous extrusion alloys. It is to be diluted with water and sprayed directly onto shear tools prior to the development of metal build-up. Upon evaporation of the water carrier, the remaining liquid lubricant moves with capillary action to completely coat and protect work tools.
• Butt shear tools are typically coated with each press cycle while the container is closed . Spray is directed from remotely placed nozzles onto the container or die side depending upon shear design and other related issues.
• Log shear tools are coated every 5 to 1 0 billets with spray being directed at the upper metal shearing interface, allowing gravity to spread the lubricant below.
ADVANTAGES
• Compatible with automatic spray equipment.
• Reduces metal contamination and profile blistering.
• Improves operation cleanliness leaving a light oily residue.
• Operator safe- not regulated by OSHA or EPA.
• Coats tools completely with capillary action of lubricant.
• Mixes easily with water to form a stable solution.
• Economical to use with proper dilution of concentrate.
• Dilution ratios may be monitored with refractometer.
METHOD OF APPLICATION AND CLEANING
BL 463 2S EJECTEZE is to be diluted with water and spray applied using a Model 3049 Spray System. Starting point dilution ratios of 5-15 parts water to one part of concentrate are recommended. With proper tooling alignment and tolerances, dilutions of up to 1 5 parts water to one part concentrate can be achieved with automatic lubrication systems.
Proper dilutions are made by adding concentrate into water with continuous agitation followed by thorough mixing. Dilution rations can be monitored and adjusted using a refractometer or similar device.
Residues and overspray can be removed with warm water or a mild alkaline cleaner.

AMCOL Precision Metering Systems
The AM COL 6000 Series Precision Applicators utilize one or more T60A
Posi -pump injectors that cycle back and forth in unison to displace a minute quantity
of fluid fed from a gravity reservoir with each
stroke. Metered liquid travels side-by-side with
air and is mixed at the spray tip. Air then propels
the fluid to the tool or workpiece.
At the lowest setting, each injector is capable
of reliably dispensing approximately 1 gallon
of fluid per 200,000 injection cycles. Air and
liquid are independently adjustable. Injection
frequency is typically controlled with an integral
air timer or PLC controlled three-way valve.
Spray System Adjustments for AMCOL 6000 Series Applicators include:
• Injection Stroke Length - Fluid volume per injection cycle.
• Number of Injectors - Typically one per spray point.
• Air Pressure and Flow to the Spray Point - For high or low velocity.
• Spray Pattern - Solid cone, flat fan, or through the tool.
• Spray Time - Single pulse or multiple injection cycles.
A Little CAN MIST Goes a Long Way CAN MIST high performance concentrates work best when dispensed in minute quantities which ultimately results in reduced chemical exposure for workers and
the environment. Many of the CANMIST concentrates are based on naturally derived
vegetable esters or cosmetic grade emollients for the best possible health and
safety profi I e.
CAN MIST high performance cutting fluids are packed with the best available additives that coat the tool surface using capillary action
that is accelerated with heat. Polar compounds bond with the tool
to create a continuous low-friction thin film coating that protects the
cutting edge, facilitates chip formation, and eliminates build-up for
longer tool life and superior cut quality.
AMCOL provides many different CAN MIST fluids to meet your exacting performance and price point requirements. All are petroleum free. Most are
formulated to be used as received and require no mixing; simply fill a gravity reservoir and
operate. CANMIST fluids are often purchased in single gallons to further ease handling
and labeling issues.

The T60A Posi-pump The T60A Posi-pump is simply the most accurate, repeatable, and reliable pump on the market today! At the heart of every AMCOL 6000 Series Applicator, these self-priming injectors create
positive suction of oil into the injection chamber to eliminate
pump cavitation. All liquid contact seals are long lasting PTFE
elastomers as standard. Injectors are inserted into an extruded body to eliminate assembly and stacking of individual injectors;
this also allows for complete rebuilding of individual injectors and
reduces potential leak points.
The injection cycle begins in the idle position. A piston sits ready to fire in a
cylinder filled with liquid that is held in place with a check valve. During the injection cycle, the piston is driven forward with air
pressure and displaces the volume of liquid in the cylinder. At the end of the piston stroke, the piston is depressurized and
spring returned to the original idle position. The patented design creates positive inlet
suction from the reservoir and refills the

At the lowest setting, each injector is capable of precisely and reliably dispensing 1 gallon per 200,000 injection cycles; higher output levels are also possible by simply rotating the
liquid adjustment screw to lengthen the
1 YoM idle chamber. Individual injectors can
' be completely shut-off by rotating the
adjustment screw until the piston is held closed. Injection volume per cycle is set in half turn increments
from the off position.
Up to 5 injectors can be manifolded to operate in unison. Manifolds can be coupled to have a total of 10 injectors (5+5)
together. Liquid output per cycle for each injector is always individually adjustable.

Mixing Liquid and Air at the Spray Point Transition Blocks reorient the liquid to be surrounded by air. Spray tips connected to the transition blocks ultimately
mix the liquid
and air. Mounting systems are available
to permanently or magnetically mount
transition blocks to your machine.
The Wet Tip, which mixes liquid and air, is specifically
designed to generate a high velocity round spray pattern without mist or fog . This pattern is ideal for
many cutting and fabricating operations that require a
highly directed spray to an exacting point. A fan type pattern can
be created with the Fan WetTip or Wide Fan WetTip.
Copper, plastic, and flexible steel extensions to the spray tip are available to ease installation and setup. 1 2" lengths are
standard with special sizes available on request. Flow controls can
be included at the transition block for precise control of air flow at the spray tip.
Transition Manifolds for Circular Saws The B Manifolds are specialized transition blocks with multiple spray points set at ideal angles to lubricate the teeth, gullet, and sides of a circular saw blade. B Manifolds
incorporate WetTips to generate a high
velocity spray that can penetrate the wind force typical of high speed sawing for maximum tool life with minimal
Spray Assemblies for Bandsaws This combination of transition blocks with low profile flow controls and 90 degree spray tips dispenses the liquid evenly to both sides of the blade. The compact multifunctional
mounting bracket allows quick easy fitting to most any band saw and is mounted from the non-cutting side of the blade to avoid
damage and ease blade changing.
overspray. The multi-functional
mounting bracket simplifies installation and allows quick, easy
access to the spray block and saw
blade for repair. B2 Manifolds with two tips for small saws are available in three sizes. The B3
manifold for larger saw blades has three spray points.

Single Line Connection The Single Line Connector is a unique version of the Wet Tip with an 1/8" NPT male thread on the exit side that can be connected directly to a hose, tube, pipe, or
machined hole. Spray tips can be used to refine
or direct the pattern.
This type of connection
is extremely versatile

Gravity service reservoirs are available from 10 ounce to 10 gallon. Smaller reservoirs are hard piped directly to the control box inlet or the injectors. Larger reservoirs are wall mounted for
safety and security. All reservoirs are completely enclosed with an
air breather on the top to protect the fluid from the elements and

System Actuation and Mounting Air to the system is turned off and on with one or more 3-way air valves. Automated systems typically utilize electric solenoid operated valves.
Air pilot valves can be incorporated when an air
cylinder is used to clamp the part in place for fabrication. A roller toggle is also an option for machines that cycle open and closed with each spray cycle.
High cycle rate machines that require precise timing of liquid output are controlled with two air valves; one valve
to control the atomizing air and a second to control the injection timing. This insures liquid is dispensed at the exact moment
required without mist or fog. Pulse rate can be one per machine cycle, multi-pulse when
controlled with a pneumatic pulse frequency generator, or by machine PLC.
Manual toggle valves or selector switches are available for applications that require the ability to manually actuate individual injectors.
The T60A Posi-pump and pneumatic controls are most commonly mounted to a steel NEMA 12/13 enclosure to protect
system controls. Alternatively, they can be panel mounted for ease of access or magnetically mounted where mobility and space
are a consideration.
Specialized Systems with Complex Controls Multi-point applicators with independent actuation to each set of injectors are designed and built to customer specification. AM COL has built hundreds of specialized systems that are tailor
made for an exact piece of equipment or application. Systems are built to have one plant air connection and one liquid connection. Both are manifolded to service each set of injectors. Controls can
be electronic, manual, air pilot, or a combination.
