Oil mist treatment in the production of stainless steel screws and bolts

In this case study, we present a project carried out for a renowned Italian company specializing in the production of stainless steel screws and bolts. The company operates 24/7 with high-intensity manufacturing processes that generate significant pollutants, including neat oil and fumes produced by demanding mechanical operations. The presence of these contaminants posed a considerable risk to indoor air quality and required an effective solution to improve workplace conditions and ensure compliance with environmental regulations.

Problems

  • Unhealthy working environment
  • Inefficiency of the filtration systems installed on the machines
  • Need for frequent maintenance interventions
  • High cost of replacement parts for the existing filtration syste

Technical features MCOS: 

  • Installed model: MCOS014#S
  • Airflow rate: 28,000 m³/h
  • Installed power: 45 kW
  • Efficiency class: F7 and F9
Solutions

HFiltration designed and implemented a centralized extraction and filtration system, fully replacing the filters previously installed on the individual machines. The project included the installation of a new piping line capable of conveying polluted air from all production stations to a single high-efficiency filtration unit. The system was also equipped with an electrical control panel featuring a PLC and a SCADA module, allowing continuous monitoring of the filter’s operation and full integration with Industry 4.0 standards. Thanks to the SCADA system, the company can supervise the process in real time and access data remotely via mobile devices.

Advantages
  1. Healthier working environment.
  2. Reduced operating and maintenance costs thanks to the elimination of individual filters.
  3. Prevention of issues and failures on the MCOS filter through real-time monitoring.
  4. Scheduled technical interventions to avoid extraordinary maintenance costs.
  5. Remote access to the SCADA system from mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets
