Unist Australia is a very successful company that covers territories in New Zealand and Australia. The aim of their company is to convert other manufacturing companies over to Minimal Quantity Lubrication (MQL).

This is because they know that using MQL instead of a flood machining coolant improves overall machinery performance and reduces the cost of washing, treating and disposing of flood coolant.

Their machines use an evaporative coolant through the spray system, which reduces mess on factory floors. The history of the company can be traced back to 1957, but the company as it is known today, was formed in 2006.

The founding owner, John Barker, had over 20 years experience with the original company and has deployed that experience in Unist Australia. Their dedication to the industry is evident by their level of innovation.

‘How-to’ Videos

The company has just announced that they have a series of ‘how-to’ videos on their website, which show their spray system in action. At the time of print, there were 8 videos on their website, but they do constantly update with new videos when new technologies arise.

One of their most popular videos is entitled, ‘How to saw 540mm diameter 4140 steel on a Everising without using messy coolant.’ The video shows the old process which involved flooding the machines. This caused safety issues with the floor being slippery and machine operators contracting skin conditions.

The video goes on to show how the spray system has improved operations and reduced any safety issues. This video has been very successful for the company because it shows prospective clients how they can improve their business.

Each video is accompanied by an introduction about the information in the video and how the ‘near dry’ systems can improve operations. This video in particular, illustrates that by eliminating flood coolants, companies can save over 15% on the cost of production.

Hosting

Unist Australia has proven, with their video section, that they are an innovative company and they know how to use popular technology to benefit their clients.

Video hosting can be very expensive for a company and if they hosted the videos on their own server, they would be restricted on the length and number of the videos because the expense would far outweigh the benefits of the videos. Therefore, they have used YouTube and linked to their videos on the Unist Australia website, so hosting is free.

A company spokesperson added, “We are very happy with the success of our video gallery. We have actually had clients contact us after they have seen one of our videos and the deciding factor to use us was based solely on the video. Due to the success of our videos on the website and on our YouTube channel, we plan to update our videos on a regular basis.”

Unist Australia is in high demand and they are dedicated to helping companies convert to their cost effective spray cooling method.
