A cutting oil filtration unit is a piece of equipment designed to remove contaminants from cutting oil to maintain its effectiveness. Utilization involves:
Integration with Machinery:
Inline Installation: Connected directly to the machine’s fluid circulation system for continuous filtration.
Offline Setup: Operates independently, purifying the oil in batches or circulating it through a separate loop.
Operation:Fluid Intake: Draws contaminated oil from the machine or reservoir.
Filtration Process: Passes the oil through filters, separators, or other purification stages within the unit.
Contaminant Collection: Captures solids, tramp oils, and other impurities for disposal or recycling.
Clean Oil Return: Delivers purified oil back to the machine or storage tank.
Features:Control Systems: Includes monitoring devices for flow rate, pressure, and contamination levels.
Mobility: Some units are portable, allowing them to service multiple machines.
Automation: May have automatic filter cleaning or changeover capabilities.
By utilizing a filtration unit, manufacturers can enhance cutting oil longevity, reduce maintenance costs, and improve machining performance.
