Filtration of cutting fluids

SPRING FILTER

Drum filter systems for cutting fluids

The SPRING filtration systems for cutting fluids, manufactured by LOSMA, are designed for production applications using cutting fluids, whether oil-based or emulsion-based. Equipped with a permanent media filter drum, an automatic cleaning system and a scraper for removing sludge and chips, the SPRING filter is recommended for production applications and particularly heavily contaminated liquids.

Performance and benefits

Investing in a SPRING filtration system allows you to:

  • Extend the service life of the cutting fluid,
  • Improve the surface finish of parts,
  • Reduce tool wear,
  • Limit clogging and wear of grinding wheels in grinding applications.
  • Reduce maintenance costs.

The SPRING range consists of several models with different flow rates:

  • 50 to 2000 L/min for 5% emulsion,
  • 25 to 1000 L/min for full oil with a viscosity of 20cst at 40°,
  • Nominal filtration threshold, 100µ as standard. Other media available on request.

A versatile and modular system

The SPRING filter is suitable for a wide range of machine tools such as:

  • Numerically controlled machining centre,
  • Numerically controlled turning centre,
  • Milling machines,
  • Lathes,
  • Flat, cylindrical and centreless grinding machines
  • Drilling machines
  • Boring machines,
  • Transfer machines

It is suitable for machine-side solutions as well as centralised systems. Its technology allows for compact or high-capacity solutions that are economical to use, as they require no consumables. The SPRING filter consists of a drum with a permanent filter cloth, a washing system and a scraper to remove sludge and chips.

The following options are available:

  • Pre-filtration by magnetic separator,
  • A cooling unit or exchanger to be connected to a chilled water network,
  • An oil separator to remove foreign oils,
  • A sludge compactor at the dredge outlet,
  • Lifting tank,
  • Custom-made tank,
  • Control cabinet.

In addition to the SPRING filter, TECHNIFILTRE also offers ready-to-use solutions for installation on machines or for multiple machines depending on the flow rate.
