Extraction Units for Metalworking

When designing effective filtration technology for machining metal workpieces, three primary factors must be considered:

• Type of machining: turning, milling, sawing, drilling, and similar processes

• Use of coolants: oil, emulsions, or minimum quantity lubrication (MQL)

• Material types: gray cast iron, high-carbon steel, light metals, non-ferrous metals, and various alloys

It is essential to maintain a clean machine environment and prevent the escape of contaminated air.

Additional design considerations include:

• Coolant pressure

• Internal machine dimensions

• Size and configuration of machine openings for part loading and tool changes

• Hazardous properties of the materials being processed
