Modular fine filtration offers flexibility with off the shelf parts

The right filtration system in a tool grinding operation is an important part of the value chain and a prerequisite for high quality and uninterrupted production. Fine filtration systems developed by Vomat Inc., rooted in Treuen, Germany, grow thanks to the availability of a wide variety of add-on modules to individually configure and tailor systems.

The cleaner a grinding lubricant can be kept and the less often it needs to be replaced, the more savings a tool grinder can realize. The cost for tools, filters and lubricants will decrease. In addition, machine downtime is minimized. Jan Froehlich, production manager at VOMAT, states: “The choice of the right filtration and cooling has an immediate impact on the manufacturing costs of the end product. Vomat filter systems ensure a 100 percent separation of dirty and clean oil. On-demand filtering and filter back-washing provide coolants to NAS 7 (3-5 microns) quality combined with significantly increased service life of the lubricant. “

The FA-series platform of standard equipment allows VOMAT to design a system that meets customer specifications and individual requirements and which best fits into the workflow of the tool grinder. These can be single units with 120 liters per minute fluid throughput up to central filtration systems which supply complete machine shops.

Through a multitude of additional components and options such as cooling modules, machine supply pumps, auxiliary tanks, remote servicing, and disposal concepts, the systems can be adapted and optimized to customer-specific system requirements. Jan Froehlich remarks: “With some before-hand planning, Vomat’s ZFH-1200 series can be adapted to changing production requirements or capacities. This results in maximum efficiency in various stages of production and business development — Vomat systems are always optimally adapted to the individual needs of the user.”

Knowing that cleaning and maintaining equipment is vital but time-consuming for automotive, construction and skilled trade professionals, WD-40 Company is introducing the WD-40® Specialist® Industrial-Strength Degreaser to help professionals easily and efficiently keep their machinery and equipment running smoothly and looking like new.

With PowerSolve TechnologyTM, a solvent that quickly breaks down grease, oil and dirt, the WD-40 Specialist Industrial-Strength Degreaser works on a variety of surfaces and is safe to use on metals, plastics, rubber, glass aluminum, and more.

“This powerful, solvent-based degreaser makes removing tough, caked-on grease, oil and dirt from machinery, engines and equipment easier than ever,” said Dr. Ernest Bernarducci, vice president of research and development at WD-40 Company. “It’s also the only degreaser on the market that has a permanently attached straw to help you pinpoint where to apply it.”

Longtime leading supplier of explosion proof lighting equipment Larson Electronics has announced the release of a 100 watt explosion proof LED light fixture for ceiling mount applications.

The EPL-HB-100LED-RT-CM explosion proof light fixture from Larson Electronics is a ceiling mounted LED light fixture that provides operators with a powerful and energy efficient alternative to traditional hazardous location luminaires.

This Class 1 Division 1 & 2, Class 2 Division 1 & 2 light fixture provides 8,667 lumens of high quality light while drawing only 100 watts of power. The cast aluminum body and LED lamp give this light excellent durability and resistance to vibration and impacts. The housing is specially designed to dissipate heat which increases the efficiency and lifespan of the LEDs and electronics. The copper free aluminum alloy body is powder coated for added durability and an attractive aesthetic appearance. This explosion proof LED light fixture is IP67 rated, dust-proof and protected against high pressure jets and temporary submersion. Light weight and a low profile make this unit an attractive alternative to larger and heavier older fixtures and require less hardware to install.

This explosion proof LED light fixture features multiple LED drivers which help increase the operational life of the fixture. With traditional LED lights, in the event an LED array or driver fails, the entire unit no longer illuminates. This new series of LED lamps contains two LED boards with an individual driver. In the event of a driver failure, only one bank of LEDs will be affected while the other banks will continue to operate. In the event that of an LED failure, the mating LED will continue to operate. The EPL-HB-100LED-RT-CM explosion proof LED fixture includes a flat surface ceiling mount with four ¾” NPT entries. This light is universal voltage capable and can be operated with 100-277 volts AC.

“This popular fixture was provided with a trunnion bracket for surface mounting as well as a hub for pendant mounting,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larsonelectronics.com. “By equipping it with a ceiling mount, this fixture is readily available for any mounting preference.”

Larson Electronics carries an extensive line of explosion proof LED lights, LED work lights, light towers, intrinsically safe LED lights, portable work lights and industrial grade LED area lights.
