Das precision machine tools has introduced a centrifuge for filtration of abrasive and metallic particles from cutting oils. The units come in full automatic and semi automatic modes. These units can handle cutting oils or water soluble coolants used on grinding, honing and other super-finishing operations. The system incorporates automatic scrapping of the dust accumulated on the inside walls of the centrifuge drum and which is collected in the trolley at the bottom. The units come in three sizes viz. 30 lpm, 75 lpm and 150 lpm. The advantages of the system are as follows:
- most suitable on straight cutting oils where other conventional systems are not effective because of the filter paper getting choked;
- can handle both magnetic and non magnetic particles;
- filtration level attained is up to 20 microns right from the start; and
- does away with the necessity of replacing, filter paper and recurring cost therefore.
