About Liquidtool

Liquidtool Systems AG is a young, software-oriented Swiss company with headquarters and manufacturing in Hasle-Rüegsau in the canton of Bern. The company develops systems for intelligent coolant management at CNC machines: the cloud-based MANAGER product digitally documents measurements and makes concentration, tank levels and pH values of all machines visible on a dashboard. The AUTOPILOT measures, mixes and refills coolant per machine fully automatically; the GUARDIAN handles automated control for central systems including monitoring of pH, hardness and concentration. The products are complemented by manual measurement, coolant audit, remote support as well as data export and API. According to the website, 26 countries are active, with 5000 users, 30,000 registered machines and 500,000 measurements per day. Customers come from CNC machining, aerospace, medical technology and precision engineering; the team works hybrid from the Bern headquarters as well as remotely in Europe, the USA and Canada.

Products & Functions

MANAGER

Cloud-based coolant management

Digital documentation of the complete coolant history with a dashboard across all machines and locations.

AUTOPILOT

Automated coolant control per machine

Measures, mixes and refills coolant fully automatically; according to customer reports, an average of 40% less coolant consumption and 80 minutes of time saved per week.

GUARDIAN

Automated coolant control for central systems

Full control of pH, hardness and concentration for central coolant systems in critical environments.

AUDIT

Coolant audit & manual measurement

Manual measurement and audit as an entry point, e.g. with a mechanical refractometer.
