Vacuum filter VL

Filteranlage Vakuumfilter VL - KNOLL Maschinenbau GmbH

Areas of application

The vacuum filter VL is a high performance filter for cleaning the cooling lubricants of machining processes, in particular grinding processes. Depending on the requirement, several filter elements can be used for individual machines (locally) or machine groups (centrally). Its special efficiency is a result of high energy efficiency, low cooling lubricant loss and low disposal costs.

Properties

  • Production of pure concentrate with low residual moisture as standard without filter aids 
  • Optimised filter capacity, filter quality and energy efficiency thanks to a flawless control system
  • Continuous filter process without reverse flushing intteruption
  • Forced degasification of coolant lubricants in the filter
  • Can be used for different machining processes, materials and coolant lubricants
  • Problem-free removal of light metal chips

Function

Filtering process

The contaminated liquid flows through the inlet box into the filter. It then runs through the filter belt into the filter chamber. From there, a filter pump conveys the filtered medium into the clean tank. The vacuum pump generates a vacuum in the filter chamber. The high pressure differential at the filtering surface creates a thick filter cake (concentrate) on the filter belt. This filter cake also acts as a filter medium and separates smallest dirt particles. The filter and vacuum pumps are regulated demand-driven and and provide for a tranquilized, constant filtering process.

Filter belt regeneration

The permeability of the filtering surface decreases as the filter cake grows. Now the belt drive switches on and conveys the carrier belt together with the filter belt a little further. Thereby, permeable filter belt reaches the filter surface and the volumetric flow through the filter surface continues to rise again. The feed length varies in such a way that the set clock cycle remains constant.

The endless filter belt passes through the following stations:

  1. Filtering section (separation of the dirt particles)
  2. Drying section (extraction of liquid from the concentrate)
  3. Cleaning with air or brush (removal of the concentrate)
  4. Backflushing (removal of the residual particles)
