Fully automatic and easy to use, the Hoffmann Suction Band Filter System pulls coolant through a filter media. This is achieved through a suction pump, which creates a low pressure area in a chamber below the media. When a specific vacuum is reached, the vacuum is released and the media transports automatically.

By using a thicker media, and building a cake on the media with the high stock removal, the UBF system is efficiently capable of achieving nominal filtration rates of 15 microns and below. To improve efficiency, the UBF system is manufactured with a unique wedge wire screen that prevents tearing of the media, unlike standard perforated metal screens.

Other features of the Hoffmann Suction Band Filter are its versatility and minimal use of floor space. The UBF system is capable of working with oil or water-based coolants. Accessories such as media reelers, coolers, drying stations, mist collectors and fine filtration vessels can be added to the unit without consuming more floor space.
