Component Specifications

Definition

A coolant collection trough is an engineered component typically installed beneath machining centers, CNC machines, or cooling sections to efficiently collect and direct used coolant fluids. It prevents coolant spillage, facilitates proper drainage, and supports coolant management systems by ensuring controlled fluid transfer to filtration or recycling units.

Working Principle

The trough operates on gravity flow principles, where coolant drips or flows from the machine into the trough's sloped surface, guiding it toward a central drain or outlet. Its design minimizes splashing and evaporation while maintaining a clean work environment.

Materials

Stainless steel (AISI 304/316), galvanized steel, or polyethylene plastic, chosen for corrosion resistance, durability, and compatibility with coolants (oil-based, synthetic, or water-based).

Technical Parameters

Capacity 5-50 liters
Dimensions Customizable (e.g., 500x300x100 mm)
Drain Size 1/2" to 2" NPT
Slope Angle 2-5 degrees

Standards

ISO 9001, DIN 11850
