Innovative Design for Industrial Productivity

The Ameroid Bucket-Type Coolant Vacuum Cleaner VC2 is a compact, air-driven system designed to efficiently remove debris from coolant tanks used in cutting and polishing operations. Its transparent acrylic body allows operators to visually confirm chip levels, ensuring optimal maintenance timing and preventing overflow or clogging.

Unlike conventional vacuum cleaners, the VC2 requires no electric power — it operates entirely on compressed air. This makes it safer, more versatile, and suitable for environments where electrical equipment use is restricted.

Key Features of the Ameroid Bucket-Type Coolant Vacuum Cleaner VC2

Transparent Acrylic Body: Provides real-time visibility of chip accumulation.
Air-Driven Operation: Requires no power supply, reducing electrical risks.
No Consumable Bags: Eliminates daily consumable costs while maintaining strong suction power.
One-Touch Fittings: Easy lid attachment and removal streamline cleaning operations.
Lightweight & Compact: Portable design enables effortless handling and mobility.
Corrosion Prevention: Helps prevent coolant corrosion during high-temperature periods, particularly in summer.

Applications and Benefits

The VC2 Coolant Vacuum Cleaner excels in:

Removing chips, sludge, and other residues from coolant tanks.
Extending coolant replacement cycles by maintaining purity.
Supporting both water-based and oil-based coolant systems.
Enhancing productivity and machining quality by ensuring clean coolant circulation.

By integrating the Ameroid VC2, facilities can significantly reduce downtime, improve cutting precision, and optimize overall coolant management efficiency.
