Blaser Swisslube, Inc and NIDEC MACHINE TOOL AMERICA Join Forces to Enhance Machining Performance!
Blaser Swisslube, a global specialist in high-performance metalworking fluids, has entered into a strategic partnership with NIDEC MACHINE TOOL AMERICA to help manufacturers improve productivity, precision, and process stability on the shop floor. The collaboration focuses on delivering integrated, application-driven solutions that align machines, tooling, and fluids as a single performance system.
At the core of the partnership is Blaser Swisslube’s “Liquid Tool” philosophy, which treats metalworking fluid as a critical contributor to machining performance rather than a consumable. Combined with NIDEC MACHINE TOOL AMERICA’s deep expertise in gear manufacturing and precision machining technologies, the alliance enables a more holistic approach to process optimisation—where machine capability, tooling strategy, and fluid performance are engineered to work together.
Through this collaboration, manufacturers gain access to joint process assessments that fine-tune interactions between machines, tools, and fluids; application-specific fluid recommendations supported by on-site technical expertise; and data-driven trials designed to reduce cycle times, extend tool life, and improve surface finish quality. The goal is consistent, measurable improvements in real production environments.
Carsten Witthuser, Head of Americas at Blaser Swisslube, said the partnership reflects a shared commitment to delivering tangible value through performance-driven fluids backed by strong technical support, ensuring reliable outcomes under demanding machining conditions.
Scott Knoy, Vice President of Sales at NIDEC MACHINE TOOL AMERICA, added that collaborating with Blaser Swisslube strengthens overall process reliability for customers by improving consistency and surface quality while helping lower total manufacturing costs.
Looking ahead, both companies plan to jointly develop further initiatives aimed at enhancing machining outcomes across a wide range of applications, reinforcing a shared focus on precision, uptime, and long-term customer success.
Founded in 1936, Blaser Swisslube is a family-run Swiss enterprise with a long-standing reputation for high-performance, people- and environment-safe lubricant solutions. With a broad portfolio of metalworking fluids, supported by skilled application specialists and tailored service offerings, the company helps manufacturers unlock the full potential of their machines and tooling—positioning metalworking fluids as a key driver of productivity and quality.
