The metalworking industry requires effective suction solutions to ensure operational efficiency, product quality and workplace safety. In this article, we will examine in detail the suction requirements of a metalworking company for the maintenance of lathe collection tanks used for the production of metal components in series and industrial riveting machines.

What are the wastes produced by the metalworking company

The waste produced by the company in question, which specializes in the production of metal components and industrial riveting machines, includes a variety of materials including coolant composed of water and various kinds of oils and iron filings. The presence of a vacuum system is essential to remove these oil-covered ferrous wastes within the collection tanks of the lathes, preparing the machinery for subsequent use. These wastes require proper handling and treatment to ensure compliance with environmental standards and to minimize the impact on product quality and the surrounding environment.

What are the suction needs of the metalworking industry

In the metalworking industry, it is essential to address various suction requirements in order to ensure the success of the production process. The company, which specializes in the production of metal components and industrial riveting machines, has identified several basic needs that require an appropriate suction system.

During production stages, lathe collection tanks fill with coolant consisting of water and oils of various kinds, along with iron filings that are deposited in the middle of the separation grids. In emptying operations and routine maintenance cycles, it is essential to empty these tanks and vacuum out the iron filings deposited at the bottom and between the separation grids. Given the heavy consistency of this filings, it is vital to have a suction system with the appropriate power.

To meet these needs, the company has successfully adopted RIBO VT 1.1 179 industrial vacuum cleaner.

In the specific context of the company specializing in the production of metal components and industrial riveting machines, a suction system belonging to RIBO’s VT line was adopted, specifically the VT 1.1 179 model. This suction solution, developed by RIBO, proved to be the optimal choice to meet the suction needs of this metalworking company, allowing the removal of ferrous residues sprinkled with liquids present in the lathes.
