Mississauga machine shop has clean air thanks to Aeroex

Contaminated air causes health problems, absenteeism, and increased equipment and facility maintenance, which translates into production and profit losses. Pro-Tech Precision knows this. The Mississauga, Ont.-based company has 10 Mazak lathes and mills on its shop floor emitting oil mist into the company’s facility. The machine shop knew it would require mist collectors to help eliminate mist and ensure clean air, so it turned to Aeroex. 

Aeroex mist collectors are engineered to overcome many of the shortfalls of other technologies. The design minimizes the reliance on filters and provides exceptional fluid drainage. It’s suitable for high mist applications, and provides exceptional air quality, low maintenance and low life cycle cost.

An Aeroex mist collector, the ROX-600 model, was installed on the highest mist generator in the Pro-Tech Precision shop — the Vertical Center Nexus 700E/40-II. Once installed, Pro-Tech found it more than handled its worst mist conditions. In fact, the company says that the shop air is much cleaner with just this one unit.  

The company is so satisfied, it plans to order additional units, one at a time, for its other lathes and mills, tackling the worst mist generators first.

This is just one of many examples of satisfied customers who have installed Aeroex mist collectors on their shop floors with impressive results. Customers get results because the state-of-the-art Aeroex technology ensures units produce clean air every time that far exceeds required plant air quality — typically less than 0.020 mg/m3 (the recommended plant limit 0.5 mg/m3).
