In Carbide Grinding operations, coolant quality plays a decisive role in determining both tool performance and overall process efficiency. Even microscopic contaminants in the coolant can damage tool geometry, degrade surface finish and increase machine downtime. Traditional filtration systems are often not designed to capture ultra-fine particles, leading to higher tool rejection rates and increased maintenance overhead.

This becomes especially critical in applications involving Carbide Tool Cutter and Grinding, High-Speed Steel (HSS) Grinding and Cast Iron Honing, where fine tolerances, surface finish and tool longevity are non-negotiable.

Why Conventional Filtration Falls Short

Many machining environments rely on conventional bag filters, magnetic separators or gravity-based systems that are unable to capture particles below 10 microns.

As a result:

• Sludge builds up in coolant lines.
• Grinding wheels require frequent dressing.
• Oil quality degrades quickly.
• Machine components wear out faster.

The outcome is predictable: higher operating costs and compromised product quality.

What One Micron Candle Filtration Solves

A Candle Filtration System addresses the critical shortcomings of traditional filtration by offering ultra-fine coolant purification down to one micron. This system uses cylindrical filter candles composed of thin wafers that trap contaminants as oil passes through from the outer to the inner diameter.

What makes this system more production-friendly is that the coolant flow continues uninterrupted even during the cleaning cycle. Machines stay operational while filtration efficiency is maintained.

Applications Across Industries

This type of filtration system is ideal for:

• Grinding Coolant Filtration.
• Carbide Tool and Cutter Grinding.
• High-Speed Steel (HSS) Grinding.
• Cast Iron Honing.

Industries such as Carbide Cutting Tool and OEM component suppliers depend on this level of consistency and control to meet demanding output targets.

Key features that set Candle Filtration apart:

• Replaceable Filter Candles lasting between 9,000 to 15,000 working hours when used with moisture-free oils.
• Automatic Backwashing periodically cleans the candles without disrupting the process.
• Oil Suction Mechanism, which extracts oil from the sludge to reduce wastage and prepare the carbide sludge for resale.

Additional enhancements include:

• Magnetic Drum Separator for pre-filtration of ferrous particles.
• Mist Extractor for improved air quality and safer operations.
• An Industrial Chiller to maintain a consistent coolant temperature.
• Scraper Type Chip Conveyor for hassle-free chip and sludge removal.

Final Word

When your machining process demands cleaner coolant, reduced tool wear and minimal downtime, a standard filter is not enough. The Lex Technoaid One Micron Candle Filtration System is designed to deliver uncompromised performance in the most demanding Carbide Grinding environments.
