Elimination Oil Drag Out

Customer manufactures threaded structural rod. This customer swages the ends of the rods to prepare them for a threading operation. When the part is removed from the machine, swage oil is carried out with the part and is being tracked throughout the plant. Installing the Model 2402 2" (51mm) Super Air Wipe at the exit to the machine, the 360 degree of air blowoff cleaned the bar as it was withdrawn from the die. This eliminated drag out and their housekeeping issues. The oil was so effectively removed they were also able to eliminate a secondary cleaning operation and experience a substantial savings in oil consumption.
