YWJ1 Oil Mist Collector: Improve Air Quality, Protect Equipment, and Enhance Productivity
In modern metalworking environments, including CNC machining centers, lathes, milling machines, grinding machines, and automated production lines, cutting fluids and lubricants are frequently atomized during high-speed machining processes. These airborne oil mist particles can negatively impact employee health, reduce machine efficiency, contaminate workspaces, and increase maintenance costs.
To address these challenges, Shansen CNC’s YWJ1 Series Oil Mist Collector is designed to efficiently capture and recover oil mist generated during machining operations. Featuring advanced electrostatic collection technology, the YWJ1 series helps create a cleaner, safer, and more productive workshop environment while supporting sustainable manufacturing practices.
Why Is an Oil Mist Collector Essential in Machine Shops?
During machining operations, cutting fluids are exposed to high temperatures and high-speed tool movements, creating microscopic oil droplets that remain suspended in the air.
Without proper filtration, these oil mist particles can:
- Affect operator health and respiratory safety
- Reduce workshop air quality
- Create slippery floors and safety hazards
- Accumulate on machine surfaces and electrical components
- Increase maintenance requirements
- Shorten equipment lifespan
- Contribute to environmental pollution
As manufacturing facilities move toward cleaner and smarter production environments, oil mist collection has become an essential component of modern machine tool systems.
How the YWJ1 Oil Mist Collector Works
The YWJ1 Series utilizes a highly efficient electrostatic adhesion and oil return flow system.
The purification process consists of several stages:
Stage 1: Pre-Filtration
Contaminated air enters the collector and passes through a pre-filter that removes larger particles and contaminants.
Stage 2: Electrostatic Ionization
The remaining oil mist enters a high-voltage electrostatic field where oil particles become electrically charged.
Stage 3: Electrostatic Collection
Charged oil particles are attracted to collection plates and separated from the airflow.
Stage 4: Oil Recovery
Collected oil condenses and flows back through the return system, allowing valuable cutting fluid to be reused.
Stage 5: Clean Air Discharge
Purified air is safely released back into the workshop, improving overall air quality.
This advanced filtration process delivers excellent oil mist removal efficiency while minimizing consumable costs.
Key Components of the YWJ1 Series
The YWJ1 Oil Mist Collector consists of:
Main Body Unit
Features an integrated motor and impeller assembly designed for stable operation, low noise, and minimal vibration.
Electrical Control Box
Provides safe and convenient operation with a simple and reliable control system.
Pre-Filter
Captures larger oil particles and debris before they enter the electrostatic filtration stage.
High-Voltage Electrostatic Module
The core purification component that effectively removes fine oil mist particles through ionization and electrostatic adsorption.
Oil Drain System
Allows collected oil to flow back for recycling and reuse, reducing operating costs.
Outstanding Structural Features
High-Efficiency Oil Mist Collection
Specifically engineered for collecting and recovering oil-based atomized particles generated in machining applications.
Reusable Electrostatic Modules
All electrostatic collection modules can be cleaned and reused, eliminating the need for disposable filter elements and reducing waste.
Multi-Stage Filtration Design
Large oil particles are mechanically separated through a honeycomb metal mesh, while smaller particles are captured by the electrostatic field.
Compact and Modular Construction
The modular design simplifies installation, maintenance, and cleaning while providing flexibility for various machine configurations.
Low Noise Operation
The system operates at noise levels below 72 dB(A), helping maintain a comfortable working environment.
Industry-Compliant Design
