Lyndsey Vickers from MTD CNC recently spoke with Paul Farndon, Chief Operating Officer at Matrix Machine Tool (Coventry) Ltd, to find out why Matrix recommends Filtermist’s UK manufactured oil mist collectors.
When asked why Matrix chose to work with Filtermist, Paul responded “At Matrix, we pride ourselves on quality equipment. We appreciate that the working environment is important for both customers and machine operators. We find that with using the Filtermist units they’re reliable, they do the job, and we don’t have to worry about it. We have a local service that’s available around the globe.”
“Do you feel the Filtermist units integrate well into your machines, and why?” asked Lyndsey. “They do integrate well,” confirmed Paul. “We get involved with the design to make sure that the airflow is correct and they’re performing as required. So, putting them on to the machines, a bit of thought goes into it, but once they’re on and up and running there’s no problems.”
When asked if Paul thinks that filtration is an essential component in a machine tool, he said, “I think with any modern industry you have to be aware of the environment and the welfare of the workforce. By using a correct filtration system, reducing the particles in the air, it goes with the quality of our machines and makes it a more enjoyable working environment for the end-users.”
Lyndsey asked Paul if he thinks using filtration offers benefits to the machine itself as well as the user. Paul replied, “It helps to keep the residue out of the machine and take it away. I would certainly recommend having Filtermist.”
