Machining
The byproduct of CNC Machining can create emissions of oil or coolant mist and smoke. The build-up inside the cavities of these machines can prove troublesome to your employee's health and the overall condition of your facility. Mist and smoke are generated from the friction and the coolant agent used to protect the tool. (MORE)
High Pressure
Modern CNC equipment and closer machining tolerances often require the implementation of high-pressure coolant delivery pumps. These pumps deliver flow rates in higher PSI and mbar ratings of standard coolant delivery. They protect the machine tool and create higher emission counts (i.e., more mist & smoke). (MORE)
Cold Headers
Cold heading and bolt making processes require oil based lubricants and friction to form fasteners and specialized fittings. The process creates heavy oil smoke and mist emissions approaching and often exceeding 80 mg/m3 of sub-micron emissions. (MORE)
Heat Treat
Heat treating processes often involve high furnace temperatures and burn-off of oily residue for material strengthening and hardening. In addition, quenching processes are often part of this process. The processes creates heavy oil smoke and mist emissions approaching and often exceeding 80 mg/m3 of sub-micron emissions. (MORE)
Plastic Injection
Plastic injection machines create plasticizer smoke and fumes during the release of the mold or material fed through an extruder. The smoke & fumes typically are in excess of 80 mg/m3 of sub-micron emissions. (MORE)
Die Casting
Die casting / forging presses processes often involve high-temperatures, severe frictional forces, and lubricant that can consists of oily-graphite compounds. This lubricant and coolant combination creates heavy oil smoke and mist emissions approaching and often exceeding 80 mg/m3 of sub-micron emissions. In addition, this emission source can include a “clumpy and sticky residue”. This residue can blind the face of a conventional filter and create pre-mature filter life and excessive maintenance.

Other Applications Include:
Food Processing Applications (Fryers, Additive Processing, Vegetable Oil Production)
Food processing applications can involve commercial/industrial fryers, food additive sprayers (electrostatic coating applications), and or vegetable oil processing. The processes creates moderate to heavy oily smoke and mist emissions approaching and often exceeding 80 mg/m3 of sub-micron emissions.
The Absolent A-Smoke is ideal for handling these emissions with large coalescing fiber bed filters designed for heavy emissions these collectors operate for a minimum of two-years without filter changes or maintenance. Oil and or product reclaim is typically accomplished with an automatic pump-back system with float/level controls and a head-pressure of 27’ which allows the oil to be re-used directly in the process machine. Cabinets and peripheral accessories are available in fabrications with #304/316 stainless steel materials to meet USFDA requirements for wash-down or food contact.
