Coolant Filtration Systems for Metalworking

Machining and forming processes contaminate metalworking fluids with chips, fines and other particles. Our industrial coolant filtration systems remove these contaminants, maintain consistent fluid quality and support reliable production processes – from compact standalone units to turnkey central filtration systems.

Challenge

Contaminated coolants: risks for machining processes

Excessive temperature rise due to insufficient cooling or reduced lubricating performance

Inadequate removal of metal fines and other contaminants

Poor surface quality and reduced production output

Increased wear on tools and rolls

Shorter tool life and unplanned downtime

Higher operating and maintenance costs

Continuous and application-specific coolant filtration is essential to maintain the performance and stability of metalworking fluids. KÖBO ECO>PROCESS provides filtration and separation systems ranging from compact, decentralised units to turnkey central filtration systems for industrial production.

The appropriate treatment process depends on the particle type and size, contamination level, flow rate and required fluid cleanliness. Based on these parameters, we configure the suitable combination of filtration technology and system design for each application. Ideally, coolant treatment is considered during the design of the production system. Our filtration solutions can also be integrated into existing manufacturing environments.

Benefits of clean metalworking fluids

Longer coolant life and reduced environmental impact

More cost-efficient production processes

Reduced friction during cutting, grinding and forming

Improved heat dissipation

Reliable removal of contaminants

Longer tool and roll life with lower replacement costs

Maximum recovery and recycling of valuable materials where technically feasible

Filter Solutions for Standard and Ultrafine Filtration

Different filtration systems can be combined to provide efficient coolant treatment based on process requirements, particle size and flow rate. Our systems maintain consistently high fluid quality and stable production conditions – from coarse separation to fine filtration.

Our belt filter systems include pressure belt filters, vacuum belt filters and the compact folding belt filter. Depending on the application, these systems operate with reusable endless filter belts or with filter fleece, enabling high flow rates, consistent filtration quality and low maintenance requirements.

Where particle concentrations are high or larger chips are present, chip separators provide effective pre-separation and reduce the load on downstream filtration systems. For particularly fine filtration requirements, such as below 10 µm, precoat filters achieve high levels of fluid cleanliness.

Our filtration systems are designed for flow rates from 200 to 30,000 l/min. Depending on the application, individual filters or multiple units arranged in parallel can be used. This maintains filtration performance even at high flow rates and supports long-term process stability. If required, stable temperature control of the coolant can also be integrated into the complete system.
