Oil Mist Capture
OVERVIEW
Machining operations generate oil mist and coolant aerosols fine enough to stay suspended in the air and travel well beyond the machine that produced them. Industresource supplies and installs oil mist collection equipment that captures those aerosols at the source, keeping them out of the air your team breathes and off the surfaces around your equipment.
WHY IT MATTERS
Uncontrolled oil mist settles on floors, walkways, and equipment, creating slip hazards and accelerating wear on nearby machinery and electronics. It is also a respiratory exposure concern that draws attention during safety audits. Capturing mist at the machine is far more effective, and far less expensive, than trying to manage it through general ventilation once it has dispersed.
WHAT WE PROVIDE
- Machine-Mounted Mist Collectors — Source-capture units sized to the machine, enclosure volume, and coolant type.
- Centralized Mist Collection — Engineered systems serving multiple machines or an entire machining department.
- Filtration Selection — Media and staging selected for your coolant, mist load, and air quality requirements.
- Ducting & Installation — Complete ductwork design, fabrication, and professional installation.
- Service & Filter Replacement — Ongoing maintenance and media replacement to keep collection performance from quietly degrading.
OUR PROCESS
We evaluate the machines, coolant types, enclosure conditions, and how mist is currently escaping, then specify collection equipment matched to that reality. Installation, ducting, and ongoing filter service are all handled by our own teams.
