Dinosaurus Coolant Management System

Every coolant management system is sized according to the number of machine tools to be connected. The more machines the larger the central separator. Coolant flow rates are more or less infinite, the smallest Dinosaurus separator starts at 500 litres/min but can rise to thousands depending on client needs.

Each separator is equipped with an automatic cleaning cycle, topping up/mixer system, drag link conveyor to remove sludge deposits along with supply and circulation pumps. Sludge handling systems can be incorporated as shown, de-watered sludge systems are also available automatically feeding recovered coolant back to the process.

Overhead pipework system delivers and returns coolant automatically eliminating the need to continually top up and monitor machine tool levels and dilutions.

Pipework design will allow total flexibility so that when machine tools need to be moved or replaced its a simple matter of disconnection and re-connection without the need for pipework modification.

Our installation teams use lightweight 'Mapress' which requires no hot work and produces a professional finish.

Each machine tool sump needs a return pump module to pump coolant back to the separator. A float valve continually feeds coolant into each machine connected to the system while the return pump removes floating tramp oil and particulates. The plant operates 24/7 which means even the largest sumps are circulated many times per day leaving coolant fresh and clean. Should the return pump fail for any reason the resulting rise in coolant level closes the float valve leaving the machine safe from overflow.

This way every machine tool connected operates at the correct dilution and sump levels are always maintained. The result is trouble free coolants which can last years before any change is necessary.
