Industrial water filtration?
Discussion
I work for a stone benchtop company and we're in the process of looking at a wet CNC, but water is the issue.
At the moment we run a CNC Saw which uses recycled water with no problems. But the CNC requires the water to be at least 10 microns for the spindle - so almost clean and can be a bit dirtier for the halo.
Trouble is, here in NZ waste water has to be disposed of correctly and clean water is metered (iirc 40L/min is a figure I have in my head).
At the moment we have 4 250L tanks that siphon into each other and a pump in the last one that supplies the saw though a particulate filter that gets the big stuff. But the really fine slurry gets through and would very quickly clog up the spindle.
Does anyone have any ideas of DIY set ups to help get the water as clean as possible?
