Cutting fluids and grinding fluids become contaminated in use mainly from machine tool slide-way and hydraulic oils that find their way into the coolants. Other contaminates from the process materials, grease and particulates also play their part. The build-up of bacteria and fungus lead to wasted coolant and disposal costs which can be virtually eliminated by keeping coolant clean.

The continual relentless cycle of sump changes and clean-outs are a result of degraded coolant. The inevitable downtime and associated labour costs can be huge. Post installation of a central coolant management system the contamination cycle is broken allowing coolant to perform to specification eliminating unnecessary sump changes. Clean coolants are good for the environment too.

Our central coolant management systems remove the need to monitor machine tool coolants on a machine to machine basis. Single point monitoring at the central plant is all that is required. Add to this automatic topping up, central point removal of tramp oil and sludge, auto ph and dilution monitoring and adjustment – and without the use of any consumable media. The systems even clean themselves!
