Recover cutting fluids from your metal scrap, then prepare them for potential reuse with collection, filtration, and separation equipment.
RECOVER MORE THAN METAL
Briquetting presses cutting fluids out of wet chips and turnings. Collecting that liquid is the first step toward recovering more value from your scrap stream.
ARS can provide collection and pumping arrangements that connect to an existing fluid-treatment system or to a dedicated coolant recovery unit. The configuration depends on your fluid, its contaminants, and your process requirements.

TREATMENT THAT FITS THE FLUID
Recovered fluid may carry fine metal particles and unwanted oils. Treatment needs to address the condition of that fluid before reuse.
Screening and filtration capture metal particles released into the fluid. Pressure bag filtration is one option for collecting suspended solids.
For suitable coolant applications, coalescing filters help separate unwanted machine-tool oils so they can be collected and removed.
Pumping and holding arrangements move recovered fluid through the treatment equipment and into collection or storage for the next step.
Fluid pressed from chips is not automatically ready to return to a machine tool. Its condition and the requirements of your process determine the treatment needed and whether it is suitable for reuse.
CONNECT TO YOUR OPERATION
Some facilities already have coolant processing equipment. Others need a collection and treatment arrangement alongside the briquetter. ARS can help plan how recovered fluids fit into the wider operation.
