Compact U-Band and Paper Band Filters for Industrial Filtration

Advanced Filtration for CNC, Grinding & Industrial Coolant Applications

Compact 'U' Band Filter

Compact U Band Filter

Compact 'U' Band Filters for Precision Coolant Filtration

The Compact U Band Filter (CUBF) is a space-saving, high-performance filtration system that removes fine chips from coolant or oil. A non-woven fabric filter ensures precision filtration for critical machining processes like grinding and honing. Its compact design reduces floor space requirements by 50% compared to traditional filters, making it an ideal solution for industries seeking efficiency and reliability.

Key Features of the Compact 'U' Band Filter

Key Features of the Compact U Band Filter

The system uses a continuous fabric band to filter chips and contaminants from coolant or oil :

  • Compact Design: Requires 50% less space than gravity band filters.
  • High Filtration Efficiency: Achieves filtration levels of 5 to 50 microns, ensuring cleaner coolant and improved machine performance.
  • Automatic Paper Indexing: Replaces used filter paper automatically, eliminating the need for manual intervention.
  • Hydrostatic Pressure Advantage:
    • Retains a taller column of coolant, creating pressure for finer filtration.
    • Reduces paper consumption, lowering running costs.
  • Customizable Sizes: Manufactured to suit various chip and coolant flow capacities.

Advantages of the Compact 'U' Band Filter

Advantages of the Compact U Band Filter

  • Better Filtration Performance : The hydrostatic head of 350–400 mm allows efficient filtration and thick cake formation of chips, improving the filtration process.
  • Cost-Effective : Lesser paper consumption means lower operational costs over time.
  • Environmentally Friendly : Reduces waste with efficient paper usage.
  • Low Maintenance : Requires minimal manual handling except during paper roll changes.

Paper Band Filter (Flat Band)

Cost-Effective Paper Band Filters for Coolant Filtration

The LEX Paper Band Filter is a cost-effective solution for filtering coolant in machining, honing, lapping and grinding operations.

  • Manual indexing paper band filters: Here the indexing ( linear movement ) of the used paper is done manually using a handle & fresh paper is pulled from the roll.
  • Auto indexing paper band filters: Here the indexing ( linear movement) of the used paper is done automatically & fresh paper is pulled from the roll.

Benefits:

  • Flexible Operation: Manual or automated indexing options.
  • High Coolant Clarity: Ensures superior machining finish.
  • Wide Flow Range: Handles flow rates of 30 lpm to 1000 lpm.
  • Customizable Design: Stand-alone units or centralized systems.
  • Quality Spare Support: Consistent quality spare filter rolls ensure filtration efficiency.

How Does the Compact 'U' Band Filter Work?

How Does the Compact U Band Filter work?

The system uses a continuous fabric band to filter chips and contaminants from coolant or oil :

  1. Coolant flows over the filter media, which traps fine particles.
  2. Once the media is clogged, it is automatically indexed, exposing fresh paper.
  3. Optional alerts signal when the paper roll needs replacement, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

Applications

The CUBF is perfect for:

  • Through coolant Filtration System
  • Component Washing Machine
  • Induction Hardening
  • Electro chemical machining

Maintenance Made Simple

  • Ensure the filter paper feeds smoothly during setup.
  • Replace and popup the gear box oil regularly
  • Regularly check coolant levels to avoid supply failures.
  • Clean the float valve to prevent clogging and ensure smooth operation.
