Industrial Vacuum Cleaners for CNC Machine Tool Maintenance – Oil & Chip Recovery Solutions

INDUSTRIAL VACUUM CLEANERS FOR MACHINE TOOL MAINTENANCE:

Oil Recovery and Chip Separation Solutions:

During machining and grinding operations, machine tools generate metal chips mixed with oil and coolant emulsions. These residues must be removed after every work cycle to maintain machine performance, ensure component quality, and avoid costly downtime.

Cleantek heavy-duty industrial vacuum cleaners provide an efficient and reliable solution for sucking chips and emulsions, separating solids from liquids, and recovering oil for reuse in the machining process.

Key Benefits of Cleantek Industrial Vacuum Cleaners:

With Cleantek’s oil and chip recovery systems, industries can:

• Reduce oil consumption costs by recovering and reusing cutting oil and coolant
• Save on disposal expenses for used oil and contaminated emulsions
• Perform quick and easy machine tool maintenance
• Minimize machine standby time, improving overall productivity

Cleantek IVCW Series – Designed for Machine Tool Applications:

The Cleantek IVCW range is a comprehensive line of industrial vacuum cleaners specifically engineered for extracting oil, coolant emulsions, sludge, and metal chips from CNC and machine tools. Even thick emulsions and settled sludge can be handled efficiently, eliminating traditional cleaning challenges.

Application: CNC Machining and Gearbox Block Cleaning:

During CNC machining and grinding operations, metal shavings often accumulate on finished components, jeopardizing production efficiency and component quality. Gearbox blocks—typically made from steel or cast iron—require thorough cleaning to remove all residual chips before proceeding to assembly.

Fast and effective cleaning is critical to:

• Avoid damage: Residual metal chips can harm precision surfaces and sensitive components
• Prevent blockages: Chip accumulation may clog machine parts, coolant lines, or conveyors
• Ensure production continuity: Efficient chip removal keeps machines running without interruption

Integrated Cleaning Solution:

To meet these requirements, Cleantek implemented a complete industrial vacuum solution integrated with each CNC machine in the plant. Dry metal chips are extracted directly from the machining area and discharged into the CNC’s existing chip collection system.

This integrated approach simplifies cleaning operations, reduces manual handling, and significantly lowers downtime—resulting in improved machine efficiency, cleaner components, and consistent production quality.
