Now the benefits of crystal clean oil are available for Lapping.

Transor has a custom oil filtration solution for all the major OEMs including Stahli single and double disc grinders as well as Blanchard grinders.

Today, traditional lapping operations have taken on a new dimension of accuracy and precision. For example, in double wheel lapping – often referred to as fine grinding – the abrasive wheels far exceed the 0.0002- to 0.0003-inch tolerances of conventional grinders, and it takes that 0.025 inch of carbide stock off both sides simultaneously within 4 to 5 minutes. The result is a new level of “flatness” and concentricity not previously obtainable.

To achieve such results, temperature controlled coolant utilizing Transor’s One Micron Filtration (OMF) makes all the difference. One Micron filtered coolant eliminates particulate build-up on the grinding wheels, which results in optimum wheel performance while extending its life. Dramatically improved surface finishes are also achieved, eliminating secondary polishing in most cases. The overall result is faster cycle times and improved product finishes.

See how Transor Filter and you can team up to create tighter tolerances, lower maintenance costs, faster cycle times and other advantages using oil and Transor Filter Systems.

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 operations world-wide, Transor’s One Micron Filter (OMF) 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 EDM.

Transor has a custom EDM oil filtration system for all the major OEMs including Mitsubishi, Sodick, Charmilles, Agie, Makino and many more. Transor’s One Micron Filtration (OMF) System also out performs cartridge filters like Ebbco.

Reduced Machining Time=Faster Cuts
Without clean dielectric, microscopic particles present in the oil can interfere with effective machining of the workpiece. If present in sufficient quantities, the frequency of discharge will be reduced and the electrode will back away from the cut. Transor’s one micron filtration helps to eliminate this contamination contributing to efficient performance at optimum machining speed.

Improved Accuracy
Geometric shapes may be deformed and tolerances not achieved when dielectric is contaminated by conductive particles. Again, Transor’s one micron filtration capabilities minimize these particles which interfere with the controlled discharge machining of the sidewalls of the cavity. Clean dielectric is essential to achieve the repeatability and close tolerance requirements of production and multi-cavity mold applications.

Reduced Pitting = Reduced Polishing
Particles bridging the gap between the electrode and workpiece convert the AC current used in EDM to DC current. This causes a concentrated discharge, resulting in arcing and pitting that damages the electrode or the workpiece. With dielectric filtered to one micron, more consistent current allows finer surface finishes that reduce polishing time.

Cost Justification
Users of the Transor System point to two areas of savings. First, Transor’s automatic cleaning of the filter elements eliminates the cost and down-time of changing standard cartridges. Second, and MOST IMPORTANT, machining with oil filtered to one micron produces significant benefits over standard five micron paper cartridges. Reduced machining time, improved accuracy, and superior surface finishes have produced documented increases in overall EDM efficiency of anywhere from 5% to 35%. Transor specializes in EDM filtration. From individual units to centralized systems for multiple EDM’s, one micron filtration provides dramatic improvements in EDM efficiency.

Transor Cost Savings Worksheet
1. Determine Annual Filter Expenses Example:

• Filter cost (2 elements @ $50 each): $100
• Hourly EDM Rate: $40/hour
• Frequency of Change: 1/week
• Time Required: .5 hour

Total Filter Expense is the sum of the following:

• Filter Cost ($50 x 2): $100
• Lost Productivity ($40/hour x .5 hour): $20
• Total Weekly Filter Expense: $120
• Total Annual Filter Expense ($120 x 50 weeks): $6,000

2. Converting Improved Efficiencies Into Dollars (Based on a nominal 10% overall improvement)

• Average Work Day: 8 hours or 480 minutes
• Projected Efficiency (48 minutes or .8 hours): 10%
• Increased Productivity ($40/hour x .8 hour): $32
• Weekly ($32/day x 5 days): $160
• Annually ($160/week x 50 weeks): $8,000

Use these figures to determine your EDM efficiency and the improvement a Transor System can provide. Most Transor users experience complete cost justification in less than two years.

For a Cleaner and Safer Environment
Let’s face it. While EDMing affords incomparable machining benefits, it can be a very messy operation. When factoring in replacement of filter cartridges, oil spills, reservoir cleaning and sludge removal, the cost and time can be significant. Here’s where the Transor System makes real sense. Because the Transor elements are a non-consumable, the debris to be disposed of is about 95% electrode/workpiece material. That means much less material to be disposed.

In addition, because oil filtered to one micron and is cooled by a refrigerant system, the affects of heat and contamination on the dielectric are reduced. The result–a much longer life for the dielectric itself. Finally, the fully automated features of the Transor maximizes the up-time of your EDM machines and allows operators to spend more time running machines instead of changing filter cartridges. Significantly reduced disposal volume and expense combine to provide a more efficient and ergonomic environment. The Transor One Micron filtration system makes the difference-where you live and where you work.
