Filter coolant and heat or cool with waste heat
During tool grinding, all influencing parameters in the overall machining chain must be perfectly coordinated. Purified coolants and lubricants play an important role here.

Vacuum clamping minimizes distortion and enables five sides to be machined in one clamping operation. The use of cooling lubricants poses a challenge: If they get into the vacuum generator, they can cause serious damage.

Protection against cooling lubricant
Anyone clamping with a vacuum during CNC machining must protect the pump from cooling lubricant. The NLS liquid separator from Schmalz separates the cooling lubricant and returns it to the running process - without interrupting the vacuum.

At Intec, Ruf Maschinenbau will be using the example of two high-quality briquetting systems to show why they quickly pay for themselves for metalworking companies. Metal chips and their adhering cooling lubricants are valuable raw materials.

The UBF vacuum belt filter from Vomat enables the filtration of water-based cooling lubricants, emulsions and grinding oils.

Richard Geiss has commissioned an additional parts cleaning system for contract degreasing, thereby expanding its range of high-end degreasing services.
Horn and Kistler have developed the Piezo Tool System (PTS), a solution for tool monitoring in micro-turning operations. It measures the cutting force in real time.
Knoll, a supplier of conveyor and filter systems for chips and cooling lubricants in the metalworking industry, is now also assembling its systems in Shanghai.
Automation of a machining center

Automated machine tools are standard, but things can get tricky with a wide range of parts.

Companies in the metalworking industry use magnetic filters to remove ferritic particles from cooling lubricants, grinding oil, washing water and other process fluids.
