Lina - The oil mist eliminator for small machines - 3nine - #1

The unique patented technology separates the oil mist up to 99.9%* by using centrifugal forces, which provides a process that requires a minimum of maintenance. A rotating disc stack separates the oil mist much more effectively than traditional centrifugal separation technologies such as cyclones and rotating filters. The rotor also functions as a fan that sucks up the oil mist and makes external fans superfluous.

3nine's technology can handle great amounts of particles and diffi cult particle types with a minimum of maintenance. Filters have problems handling great amounts of particles and sticky particles, and get clogged when dealing with solid particles. Electrostatic fl Iters also have problems in handling great amounts of particle and sticky particles, and cyclones have a low purif l cation rate.

3nine can handle difficult applications where other technologies have problems, fail or have high maintenance costs. A patented solution to handle tough applications

is the Cleaning-in-Place™. It is a special cleaning system that effectively and automatically cleans the machine of sticky and solid particles.

For more complicated processes such as grinding and working in quench oils, 3nine has developed a special machine, Petra™ a further development of the existing technology.

The oil mist is separated directly and oil droplets from the oil emulsion are brought back to the machine tool's cutting f l uid tank. The evaporation of oil fumes into the workshop is therefore minimal. Continuous f low of particles and oil out of the separator eliminates the risk of a pressure drop and thus of diminished air f l ow caused by clogging. This will guarantee the operator an optimal working environment.

3nine's oil mist separators are compact and can easily be installed directly on top of the machine tool. This saves both pipe works and floor space and provides unbeatable f l exibility.

An investment in 3nine's technology is a healthy investment in a better working environment, where you will be able to reduces your costs, and will benefit from:

• a minimum of maintenance

• a healthy working environment with a healthy staff

• complete recycling of the cutting fluid thanks to the high degree of separation and minimal evaporation.

• a technology insensitive to the amount of pollution, resulting in reliable performance, even in tough environments.

• compact and flexible installations.
