Cool ideasDo you know about…?Comic

The chemistry has to be right

Dear readers,

Most customer relationships are based onmore than just perfect products and ser-vices. Often a harmonious relationship tac-itly rests on personal values and conduct.People have to fit and know what they canexpect from their partner. Does this meana relationship of mutual dependence? As a freelance advertising and PR consult-ant and editor of this magazine, I say theanswer is clearly YES. All players in anysystem are dependent on each other in oneway or another – motivated employees arejust as important as fair raw material sup-pliers and reliable sales channels. Ulti-mately, customers decide through theirorders whether a company can offer theexpected product or service on the market– and thereby survive.

At the personal level, we usually senseearly on if the chemistry is right. With amotor oil, for example, it’s rather more difficult to decide at the product levelwhether we’re looking at a good or an outstanding “vintage”. With an extremelybroad and deep range of motor oils, you can depend on MOTOREX to havethe right product for every use and every pocket. Manufacturer approval and theMOTOREX advisory service are there to help you make the right purchase.

Enjoy your reading!

The right radiator protection at a glance

Water pump with suitable (left) and unsuit-

able (right) radiator protection.

Radiator with high-quality (left) and defec-

tive (right) radiator protection.

Year-round radiator protectionOnce, we used alcohol diluted with waterto keep our coolant from freezing in thewinter. These days are now long past,however, and today, modern coolants havea whole range of functions:

• protection against corrosion

• protection against cavitation

• protection against frost

• protection against overheating

• high heat transfer

• temperature resistance

• hard water stability

• compatibility with materials

• low foaming

• protection against deposits

Enemy Number One – corrosionRust (corrosion) in the cooling system isthe worst enemy of any material. Anddealing with all the different alloys andmaterials with different surfaces used inengine blocks, cylinder heads and all the various sensors and switches is quite a job for any coolant. MOTOREX hasrisen to this major challenge by produc-ing a range of several antifreezes cus-tomized for specific materials and manu-facturer’s specifications (see table).

Speaking of cavitation ...Cavitation – the formation of tiny hollowspaces or bubbles within a fluid – is anothersource of problems. When they burst, theyrelease shockwaves in the cooling systemthat can destroy thin metal walls in theengine block.

MOTOREX ANTIFREEZE avoids the problem, as laboratory testing of itscavitation, erosion and corrosion proper-ties shows. These properties and others can only be tested in the laboratory – all the workshop can measure is the freezing point.

Complex chemical compositionAll MOTOREX ANTIFREEZE prod-ucts are based on ethylene glycol and in-hibitors such as those used to protect rubber components. Depending on the product and use, nitrite, phosphate amineand silicate additives may be unnecessary.

Glycol gives antifreeze a sweet taste, but it is also slightly poisonous. As a resultantifreeze should always be kept well out of the reach of children! Used coolantmust also always be carefully collected and properly disposed of.

The importance of regular changingOld coolant not changed in accordancewith the manufacturer’s specifications canresult in chemical reactions at high tem-peratures with disastrous consequences.Microscopic particles can be dissolvedfrom surfaces and form deposits at otherpoints. The result, a coating which reducesthe diameter of the cooling system or mayeven block a coolant channel completely, isa sure sign of impending damage to the

engine! The product data sheet shows theantifreeze needed and the mix for eachtype of protection. The antifreeze shouldbe mixed with clean, potable-quality tapwater.

Manufacturers’ certificationIndividual certification by car manufac-turers is particularly important for radia-tor protection agents. Certification fol-

MOTOREX has brought together all its car motor oils under the CAR LINEname. These clearly and uniformlylabeled products let you satisfy everyneed. Even better – your MOTOREXimporter can offer you the right products,tailored to your needs.

It goes without saying that the recom-mended MOTOREX motor oils areapproved for all intended uses. Develop-ing and producing innovative and provenlubricants has been a MOTOREX specialty for over 60 years. Professionaladvice is just as much a part of whatMOTOREX delivers as the extensiveservice package and well-developed tech-nical customer service.

Quality and competence countA survey by the German trade magazineAUTOHAUS shows that when the aver-age workshop customer chooses a motoroil, the deciding factor for is not the price,but the quality of the lubricant and thecompetence of the workshop performingthe maintenance.

What customers expect from lubricantsvaries depending on the vehicles and cus-tomers a workshop serves. For manufac-turer’s agents, lubricants can be used forup to 30,000 km under certain circum-stances. For used car dealers in the lowerprice segment, a free oil and filter changebefore delivery can be an additional sell-ing point.

A valuable relationship of trustThe relationship between a car owner andworkshop owner is based on trust. This iswhy customers should be told about thequality of replacement parts and supplies.MOTOREX holds regular seminars forits customers, delivering valuable infor-mation on lubricants which are in aprocess of constant development.

CAR MOTOR OILS: better choice all round

Ideal for refilling with identical quality:

the patented MOTOREX 1 liter container

You could write a book about motor oil. Formulations, approvals, oil change

intervals and additives would all play an important role. But let’s give away the

ending now: with its three new POWER & PERFORMANCE, MANUFACTURERS

and SAFETY & ECONOMY classes, MOTOREX gives you a range tailored to the

technical and commercial needs of every workshop.

The new MOTOREX CAR LINE – leading technology organized simplyThe right oils can be found quickly and easily from the three categories.

Every MOTOREX motor oil has

a technical information sheet

with exact specifications.

MOTOREX POWER & PERFORMANCE

distance truck testing, often in coopera-tion with leading engine developers. The lubricant is only forwarded to thevarious agencies for approval after count-less evaluations and series of tests.MOTOREX FOCUS 4 SAE 10W/40was specially developed for Euro 4/5 engines and can be used in engines withexhaust recycling or exhaust aftertreat-ment (SCR systems), and in engines withor without particle filters.

The new FOCUS 4 motor oil is anotherstep by MOTOREX on the road to LowSAPS motor oils, meeting futurestandards today. Your personalMOTOREX partner or our customerservice will be glad to provide further information.

Under the current Euro standard, dieselemission values will become steadily morerestrictive in future. For example, theEuro 4 and 5 exhaust emissions standardshave increased requirements for the motoroils used. The diesel engines in this gener-ation require low ash and sulfur lubricants(LowSAPS = low sulfate ash, phosphorusand sulfur) which protect exhaust after-treatment systems components from dan-gerous deposits.

Costly developmentBefore a motor oil like the pathbreakingMOTOREX FOCUS 4 can get officialapproval, substantial investment in R&Dis required. This starts with chemicallaboratory testing and ends with long-

oils, the new MOTOREX FOCUS 4

motor oil is ideal for use in low emis-

A leading brand needs a strong importerto expand successfully into exportmarkets. The professionals at BIHRDISTRIBUTION are BUCHERMOTOREX’s strong partner in France.The company’s core competencies are in selling and distributing spare parts and supplies for mopeds, quadbikes, jetskis and automobile pistons. These aresold to professional motorcycle dealersand workshops throughout France.

Importance of lubricantsBIHR knows the importance of a high-quality motor oil from its own experi-ence. When the company was formed in 1975, it had three employees anddealed exclusively in WISECO brandpistons. They acquired various used pistons which had seen better days; toolittle or poor quality motor oil destroyedmany a piston and helped boost thecompany’s sales in the 1970s. The com-pany grew and began to distribute otherprominent brands like MIKUNI,KEIHIN, YOSHIMURA, BIKE LIFT,WOSSNER, VERTEX, BMC,TSUBAKI, NGK, TOMMASELLI, and – not least – MOTOREX: TodayBIHR is a major operation with a work-force of no less than 55 employees.

Strong distributionThe company’s founder, Cyrille Bihr,knows the French market intimately andbelieves in the importance of a highly effective sales force. Distribution ofMOTOREX lubricants and auto careproducts started in 2000 and marked theopening of another new chapter in BIHR’ssuccess story. Additional sales personnelwere hired. Today, the company has a network of some 10 sales representativesthroughout the country in close contactwith resellers and keeping a constant finger on the pulse of the market.

Most effective distribution channelsHaving this effective distribution chan-nel has helped MOTOREX maintain its strong growth in France. BIHR andMOTOREX share a common philosophyon issues like image, quality, technical market leadership and service.

Professionalism is a keynote of BIHR,from the warehouse through the orderingand delivery procedures to feedback to themanufacturers. “This is where our strengthlies!” says Cyrille Bihr with pride, as heturns to the next challenge. And whateverthat challenge is, we are confident that hewill tackle it with great success!

Well-trained employees are essential

for convincingly presenting the benefits

of a lubricant. Training at MOTOREX.

For the past five years, BIHR has been

the official MOTOREX importer in

France for the motorcycles market.

A good reason for a brief introduction

to our partner from Alsace.

As boss, Cyrille Bihr is the symbol of the

company’s success. Often there are over

25,000 articles in stock at the warehouse.

Deep-hole drilling on a modern machiningcenter requires a deep-hole drill and a powerful high-pressure cooling system. In deep-hole drilling of high alloy stainlesssteels like those used in medical devices,the drilling fluid continuously flushes chipsout of the hole under very high pressure,ensuring process reliability at every stage.

INOX 1.4441 implantThe processing for the implant in the illus-tration includes turning, tapping, deep-hole drilling, hexagon milling, cutting andsmoothing. If all the steps are to be doneon the same machining center, the cuttingoil used must also be high-performance.Conventional deep-hole drilling oil cannotmeet this requirement. For proper machin-ing of the piece, the cutting oil must havethe following properties:

• outstanding extreme pressure characteristics, as the system pumpsoil at up to 350 bar

• good degassing properties in alltemperature ranges

• extreme cooling capacity, specificallyfor deep-hole drilling

• optimal protection for tool edges in tapping and drilling

• above-average wetting and lubricantproperties

• no odor or aerosol emissions

The specialists chose MOTOREXORTHO NF-X for a comparative testwith a conventional deep-hole drilling oil,focusing specifically on the deep-holedrilling stage.

Informative comparison seriesComplete processing of the ductile im-plant steel workpiece at StuckenbrockMedizintechnik GmbH in Tuttlingen,Germany, plainly pushed all the produc-tion elements to their limits.

The comparison series was produced onidentical TORNOS machining centerswith the same tools. Particular attentionwas paid to the results of deep-hole drillingusing a conventional deep-hole drilling oiland MOTOREX ORTHO NF-X. The extreme requirements in terms of highpressure stability and cooling properties of the cutting oil during deep-hole drilling(bit diameter 1.15 mm, hole depth 60 mm)revealed significant differences after only a short time.

Modern carbide drills, such as the BOTEK

single-lip drill, face increasing advance

speeds and stresses. High-tech is the only

answer.

With today’s technology, deep-hole

drillings with high depth-to-diameter

ratios using single-lip drills can be

made to high precision on machining

centers, using sophisticated equip-

ment and drills. The drilling fluid ap-

plied plays a central role.

MOTOREX ORTHO NF-X R ISO 15

I n d u s t r y

The greatest advantage of ORTHO NF-X, with its low viscosity of ISO 15, was its ability to bridge the gap between athick oil, e.g. 32 cSt, for tapping and a thinoil for deep-hole drilling without any lossof performance. While surface quality was virtually identical in the previous pro-cessing stages, deep-hole drilling withORTHO NF-X showed sharply improvedtool life (see diagram of drill bit life) withoptimized Ra values.

Overall performance also increased greatly,by over 47.6%. The improvement is attrib-

utable to thecomplex package of additives

in all MOTOREX ORTHO cutting oilsusing vmax technology. MOTOREX vmax technology delivers the desiredchemical synergies at the decisive momentfor processing in specific temperatureranges, resulting in maximum productionspeeds.

Deep-hole drilling with a favorable side effectDeep-hole drilling on a machining centerbegins with a pilot hole. During drillingwith the solid carbide single-lip bit the toolis supported by the guide pads on the holewall. This has a smoothing effect, givingthe high surface quality (Ra value) which is a characteristic of deep-hole drilling, and maximizes tolerance and shape accura-cy in drilling. This otherwise requires anadditional process, such as lapping. Theability to omit lapping as a processing stagenot only boosts production capacity but also has cost benefits.

Modern deep-hole drilling tools are high-precision, high-tech products which con-stitute an important factor in productioncosting. An ideal combination of tool,

process and processing fluid showsthrough clearly in extended tool life.

Do you have any questions about deep-hole drilling? Our specialists at MOTOREX AG will be glad to assist you.

This high-precision implant is made from

1.4441 implant steel in several processing

steps using a deep-hole drill at Stucken-

brock Medizintechnik GmbH in Germany.
