Making choices in the face of hundreds of options can be frustrating.  You want to make the best decision possible in a reasonable amount of time.  We start Metalworking Fluid FILTRATION MONTH with the basics. Hundreds of equipment manufacturers knock on our doors and try to convince us that their  technology is the one we need.  Do you need strainers, centrifuges, Hydro cyclone separators or what?  Do I really need such a high-tech machine to filter my fluid?  What is that exactly needed for my type of application.

Fluid Control System has developed a quick reference guide to filtration methods as defined by the machining process. It's very simple to understand and provides a great first step in the process.
