Minimal lubricating control unit for machines LTEC MICRO DROP

LTEC'S minimal lubricating systems have been designed to replace the traditional lubrication with oil emulsion or neat oil in machining with chip removal, molding and cold deformation. These units have been designed to use fluids from renewable bases which replace conventional fluids eliminating the obligation of registration and disposal of used liquids. The micro pneumatic pumps dose the minimum amount of lubricant transported by a flow of compressed air flow to the contact point tool/ workpiece without creating fog or pollution. The lubricant is consumed only during the processing phase. It is possible to obtain an instant increase in productivity as it helps eliminate cleaning times usually required by the machine as well as it surrounding working area. A further advantage in cost reduction is derived from the increase in tool life, which, kept at a room temperature, significantly increases its life, it also eliminates the health problems derived from contact with traditional fluids. MODEL FOR MACHINE TOOLS The ECU consists of a 1.2-liter tank with electric level control, frequency generator, needle valve to regulate the flow of compressed air coming out of the nozzel, micro-pump single-acting pneumatic pump, solenoid valve to start and stopping the control unit, articulated nozzel (s) with 5 meters of coaxial pipe.
