• Extend wheel life by as much as 400%
• Reduce cycle times by a much as 25%
• Eliminate existing maintenance cost (filters, cartridges, paper rolls, pre-coat)
• Increase machine up-time
• Reduce disposal cost

Major advancements in manufacturing have taken place in recent years with machine tools offering such features as increased accuracy, faster cycle times and untended operation. Filtration however has long been a misunderstood and neglected component of the machining process. This has led to rising maintenance and disposal costs and contributed to less than optimal machining efficiency. Already used in grinding operations throughout Europe, the Transor Filter provides the finest in filtration, providing benefits that are not present in cartridges, paper roll or centrifuge systems.

Now the benefits of crystal clean oil are available for industrial grinding applications.

The Transor System's patented filter concept provides one Micron absolute filtration, with elements that are designed to be cleaned rather than replaced. This procedure is performed every 8 hours and requires only 6 minutes, resulting in a filter element life of 15,000+ operating hours.

Benefits provided by the Transor are as follows:
Elimination of existing maintenance cost
(filters, cartridges, paper rolls, pre-coat)
Reduced labor cost for maintenance
Reduced disposal cost
Greater reclamation of environmentally sensitive materials
Prolonged coolant life
With other forms of filtration end users and OEM's have tried to address the concerns caused by dirty coolant by increasing both the amount of oil directed at the machining area along with the pressure. This focuses on a symptom of the problem rather than its' source.

Benefits of One Micron Filtration
Machining with coolant filtered to One Micron creates a much cleaner environment. There is less build-up of dirty oil on the fixtures and the work surface, lessening set-up time. The workpiece is also cleaner making parts easier to wash and ship quickly to the customer. Cleaner coolant is also easier on your machine as fewer particles can flow into critical machine areas that can result in component failure.

Finally, Transor's crystal clean coolant washes the dirt from the windows of enclosure doors helping your equipment look as good as it did the day it was installed.

For a Cleaner and Safer Environment
Taking care of the environment is everyone's responsibility and proper disposal of filter materials is an important step. In California, a model other states are moving towards, companies grinding carbide are classified as "Haz-Mat" facilities. They are required to very accurately monitor their disposed procedures.

The Transor System enables a company to achieve a high degree of control over these wastes, preventing damage to the environment and maximizing economic benefits. Because the Transor elements are non-consumable, the debris to be disposed is comprised of 95% workpiece/grinding wheel material and if necessary can be reclaimed (i.e. carbide). Also, the actual amount of material to be disposed of is far less than competitive systems.

Coolant disposal can also be a costly proposition. When exposed to heat and contamination over time all coolants change and break down. Because the Transor System filters to One Micron absolute, it removes better than 99% of the contaminants that cause this breakdown. Coolant life is greatly extended.

For these reasons and more, the Transor Filtration System helps contribute to a profitable business while maintaining a healthy working environment.
