The best way to keep your machinery in excellent condition and product surface finish, is to use cleaner coolant or lubricant fluids.
Magnetic filtration is widely used in the automotive industry within OEMs and tier 1 and 2 suppliers for the manufacture of powertrain and engine components.
Magnetic filtration can improve efficiency in most steel processing operations such as steel production, both hot and cold.

Steel Processing
Company Bombardier (Austria) Application Cast iron piston bushings Process: Milling and gun drilling
Advantages • High precision finish • Reduced downtime • Achieves optimal performance with cast iron particles • Ideal for 24/7 operation • Flow rates up to 10,000 litres: multi-use to increase flow capacity
Typical Application • Ring & pinion gear lapping • Turbocharger balancing machines • Crank shaft gun drilling
Advantages • Automated cleaning ideal for heavy contamination • Improved surface finish • Reduced downtime • Suitable for arduous environments • 24/7 operation
Typical Application • Steel rolling mills • Sawing machines • Steel pipe cutting
Company Steelscape (USA) Application Steel rolling and picking Process: Surface spray system
• Valve face grinding • Cam shaft grinding • Cylinder liner honing • Engine liner grinding • Gear cutting and finishing
• Tube threading equipment • Surface treatment processes • Spray bars
Filtramag removed sub-micron particles reducing abrasive wear on tools and parts. Tool changes and product reject rates were reduced to virtually zero.
Heavy contamination blocked barrier filters within hours. AutoMag extracts 12000 Kg contamination / month – reject rates have fallen to zero.
• Roller lubrication • Final wash process • Deep hole drilling
Magnetic filtration enhances performance on a variety of machine tools. It offers a competitive edge to machine tool manufacturers particularly when servicing high precision applications.
Magnetic filtration is used by some of the world’s largest bearing manufacturers to ensure sub-micron accuracy in the production of bearing components.
