The Needcontainers vertically mounted tap grid is a smart and practical solution for mechanical workshops, CNC machining centres and metalworking companies that want to maximise the recovery of emulsifiable oil used in metal cooling during turning, milling or drilling operations. Designed to integrate easily and effectively into existing collection systems, this grid allows metal chips to be quickly and reliably separated from the coolant, extending its useful life and reducing waste.
Materials
Made of perforated S235JR structural steel sheet or higher, the grid uses gravity to retain chips on the upper surface, while the emulsifiable oil filters through the calibrated holes and is conveyed to the bottom of the container. The design includes the installation of a vertically mounted 3/4″ tap (code RSO 20001), which allows for controlled, precise and leak-free drainage, facilitating both continuous fluid recovery and scheduled emptying for maintenance.
This solution not only improves operational efficiency, but also contributes to environmental sustainability and cost reduction: recovering clean oil means fewer purchases of new fluid, less hazardous waste production and greater compliance with current environmental regulations. The robust structure, made with certified and traceable materials from UNI EN ISO 9001 suppliers, guarantees resistance to wear, corrosion and impact even in the most demanding industrial environments.
Thanks to the flexibility of Needcontainers’ technical department, the grid can be customised according to specific customer requirements: dimensions, sheet thickness, tap position or surface treatments such as galvanising or epoxy painting. In addition, the system is easy to clean and requires minimal maintenance, ensuring production continuity and reduced downtime. Ideal for those seeking reliability, efficiency and compliance with regulations, this grid is a smart investment for any business that works with metals and industrial fluids.
