Oil mist separators for machine tools – 5 advantages

03. November 2023

When are oil mist separators used?

Oil mist separators are used to filter moist or sticky substances such as aerosol mist, emulsion mist or vapors that are generated during production processes. When machining workpieces, a coolant / cooling lubricant is often used, which turns into a fine oil mist due to heat (e.g. friction). These mists and emulsions are usually hazardous to health, can damage machines and materials and contaminate workpieces. The risk of accidents and fire also increases considerably. 🔥

1. efficient filtering of oil mist, emulsions & vapors
2. Extended service life of machine tools and tools
3. Clean working environment
4. Safe workplace
5. Environmentally friendly

1. efficient separation of oil mist:
Oil mist separators play a crucial role in tackling the problem of oil mist generated during the machining process of machine tools. By using these separators, the oil mist is efficiently removed from the air, resulting in improved air quality in the working environment. This is particularly important as oil mist can be harmful to health and cause respiratory problems for employees.

2. extended service life of machine tools:
Oil mist can build up on the surfaces of machine tools and lead to corrosion and premature wear. By using oil mist separators, the oil mist is effectively removed, extending the service life of the machine tools. This leads to lower maintenance costs and higher productivity.

3. clean working environment:
Oil mist can build up not only on the machine tools, but also on floors, walls and other surfaces in the working environment. This can lead to a messy and slippery environment, putting the safety of employees at risk. By using oil mist collectors, the amount of oil mist in the air is reduced, resulting in a cleaner and safer working environment.

4. safe workplace
The filtering of emissions from the hall air protects the health of employees, reduces the risk of accidents and contributes significantly to fire protection in production halls.

5. environmentally friendly:
Oil mist separators help to reduce the environmental impact by preventing oil mist from entering the atmosphere. Oil mist can be harmful to the environment, especially if it gets into water or soil. Using oil mist separators minimizes the environmental impact and ensures more sustainable operations.

Oil mist separators are available in various sizes and designs and are configured specifically for our customers’ processes. This makes the extraction units more efficient and energy-saving than standard products. 💸
