LNS SFcompact improves chip and coolant management

LNS Turbo, a specialist in machine tool peripherals, has introduced its SFcompact automatic chip and coolant management system. The company says that the floor space used by the patented SFcompact is 30% less, compared with filter drum conveyors, and is easier to integrate as in most cases no special tank is required.

Designed to offer self-cleaning filtration down to 50 micron, the LNS SFcompact is said to be suitable for most materials and chip types. Modular construction means that a filter module can be changed in 30 minutes.
