Oil Mist Extraction on CNC Lathes: Practical Experience at Günthner

At P & R Günthner GmbH in Bad Wildbad, two OEN extraction systems from TBH, including piping installation, are in use in the production hall. They are designed to effectively extract oil mist from CNC lathes.

Especially during machining with cooling lubricants, oil mist can significantly pollute the work environment. The OEN series from TBH is designed for such applications.

The managing director describes just how big the difference can be in practice:

Firsthand account from the field:

“We used to even have a layer of oil on our floor; it was slippery. Our eyes burned, and we kept having coughing fits. Now our production hall is cleaner—the air, the floor, and even our machines. The whole work atmosphere is different. I never would have thought that the right extraction system could make such a difference.”

The use of the two OEN extraction systems demonstrates how important it is to capture oil mist directly at the source. This keeps the production environment cleaner and makes the workspace noticeably more pleasant.
