22.10 Cleaning the coolant system centrifuge
The centrifuge unit forms part of the coolant system and its function is to filter out any grinding
debris present in the coolant oil as it passes through the centrifuge.
Over time, the heavier particles of grinding dust gather together and stick to the drum’s inner surface
and eventually the centrifuge unit will become unstable and start to vibrate because the drum has
become imbalanced as it continues to rotate.
Therefore, regular maintenance cleaning of the centrifuge drum must be carried out to ensure
trouble free operation.
