FAUDI for Continental, South-East Asia
Quality for any demand
Germany‘s second largest tyre manufacturer,
Continental AG, sees great potential in the South
East Asian region. As a result, the company decided to
set up a new production facility in Thailand. It has been
producing components for diesel fuel injection systems
there since the beginning of 2009. Continental ordered
two central coolant processing systems in order to set up
the new production operations. The „soft“ production area
is supplied by a FAUDI FUF 22 vacuum filter unit (main
filtration) and an AS 18 pre-coat filter unit (bypass filtration)
while the „hard“ production area is supplied by FAUDI
Type AS 34 twofold pre-coat filters (that can be extended
up to fourfold).
Parts made from cast metal are processed on the soft
milling machines. A FAUDI vacuum filter with relatively
high-quality filter fleece was chosen as the filtration
solution for the machining oil, which is required in filter
quality NAS 12. This ensures that high filtration quality and
a filtration grade of approx. 30 μm are achieved even with
new fleece, i.e. without filter cake. The pre-coat filter in the
bypass also prevents very fine particles from collecting in
the machining oil.
In hard machining, i.e. steel grinding, a low-viscosity
grinding oil with a very high filtration of contamination
class NAS 6 is required as coolant. The ideal solution here
is a pre-coat filter system made by FAUDI – the candle
filter allows deep-bed filtration and thus a high filtration
grade. The filter elements are also protected from lasting
contamination through the fact that a deposit layer
develops on the filter candles that is then cleanly removed
thanks to a specific difference in pressure. The dirt is then
finally discharged from the system in a so-called sludge
treatment process. Continental sees FAUDI GmbH as a
competent and reliable partner for whatever demands that
have to be met.
