Dirty coolant is expensive
Coolant carries fine chips, tramp oil and bacteria. Over time it clogs pumps and nozzles, wears spindles and guides, shortens tool life, smells, and must be dumped and replaced. Each of those costs money and downtime.
Filtration options
- Central plants — filter coolant for the whole machine park
- Self-cleaning and band filters — remove fine particles continuously
- Magnetic separators — pull out ferrous fines
- Oil separators — remove tramp oil (up to 99% with patented designs)
- High-pressure units — clean coolant for through-spindle delivery
- Chillers — keep coolant at a stable temperature
Chips are a resource
Chip centrifuges recover coolant from swarf; briquetting machines compact chips into dense blocks with higher scrap value; shredders deal with long stringy swarf. Together they turn a messy waste stream into income and reclaimed coolant.
Clean air and floors
Industrial vacuums designed for chips and liquids, and ATEX-rated units for explosive dust, complete the picture — safer floors and cleaner machines.
