Create a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable workplace with Ogale ecosol MQL and near-dry machining. Save 70% on consumables, extend tool life by up to 40%, and eliminate flood coolant entirely.
MQL is a microlubrication technique that facilitates near-dry machining. It eliminates large quantities of hazardous coolants and replaces them with a small quantity of environment-friendly lubricant in the form of aerosol.
ESG is international. If your customers export, report sustainability metrics, or audit supplier processes, coolant-heavy machining quickly becomes a procurement and compliance question.
Ogale ecosol removes wastewater handling, hazardous coolant disposal, and biocide management from the machining line. That means cleaner environmental reporting, safer operator exposure, and a process that is easier to defend in ESG reviews.
Ogale Machines & Systems was founded by Captain Sachin Ogale — a retired Air India pilot and 20-year veteran of precision automotive restoration. We design, manufacture, and assemble every ecosol unit in Pune, using 100% domestically sourced components, and blend our own KwikKut® OMSecolube lubricant in Maharashtra.
Indian machine shops have long relied on hazardous water-based flood coolants. We knew there was a better way. So we built it.

MQL stands for Minimum Quantity Lubrication. Instead of flooding the cutting zone with coolant, it uses vegetable-based ester lubricant in the form of aerosol, delivered precisely to the cutting edge. This keeps the shop floor dry, produces clean chips, and removes the need for tanks, pumps, filtration, and waste disposal.
Yes. The Ogale ecosol is an independent system with its own PLC. It connects to your CNC machine via a standard interface and requires no modification to the machine. It can be mounted on the back panel or installed on a dedicated stand, and it works with all major CNC brands.
MQL is suitable for turning, milling, drilling, tapping, broaching, deep drawing, and bar saw cutting. It supports both internal delivery (through spindle) and external delivery (open-cast nozzles). It is particularly effective for high-speed machining and exotic alloy applications where flood coolant is not viable.
All Ogale ecosol systems use a vegetable-based ester MQL lubricant: KwikKut® OMSecolube. It is more than 99.7% vegetable-based, food-grade, biodegradable, and engineered specifically for Ogale systems.
The system typically consumes 2 to 2.5 litres per day on an 18 hour production cycle, depending on the machine, tool, and operation.
Yes — 100%. Every ecosol unit is designed, assembled, and tested in Pune, Maharashtra, using domestically produced components. The KwikKut® OMSecolube lubricant is also blended in India. Ogale Machines & Systems is a proudly Indian company.
YES. In most cases, surface finish improves because MQL reduces thermal variation at the cutting edge and maintains more consistent lubrication through the cut.
The Ogale ecosol typically needs maintenance every 1 year or 5,000 operating hours, whichever comes first. Day-to-day operation requires only routine top-up and inspection.
The system requires a compressed air supply of 5-15 CFM, depending on the model and process. Compressed air should meet ISO 8573-1:2010 quality class 5 or better.
