What is mist collector?
mist collector is a device that removes harmful particulate matter, especially oil mist, generated in factories. mist collector separate the air and oil mist, and then suck in and collect oil mist floating in the air.
Particulate matter such as oil mist, dust, and fumes that are generated in the air during production activities in factories can contaminate the work environment and cause health problems for employees. Therefore, it is important to remove these substances by installing general ventilation or local exhaust ventilation systems according to the properties of the substances.
mist collector play an essential role in sucking in oil mist, which is classified as particulate matter among harmful substances, and separating it from the air.

oil mist has various effects on the work environment. Here we will explain in detail the effects of oil mist and the benefits of introducing mist collector.
Preventing effects on the human body
oil mist can cause eye and skin diseases if it comes into direct contact with the eyes or skin. Inhaling oil mist can also have adverse physical effects, such as headaches and discomfort. mist collector are devices that help reduce these health risks and improve the working environment. Furthermore, installing mist collector improves visibility within the factory, leading to increased productivity.
Preventing impact on machinery and equipment
If oil mist adheres to electronic devices, it can cause short circuits. It also often causes corrosion of metal and plastic parts. Introducing mist collector can extend the life of machinery and equipment and help reduce maintenance costs.
Preventing environment impact
Oil spills in factories affect safety by causing poor visibility and making floors and walls slippery. Oil smoke also poses the risk of fire and explosion. mist collector can maintain environment within factories by removing oil smoke and oil mist.

mist collector are essential equipment for dealing with oil mist in factories. Understanding the characteristics of each collection method and selecting the one that best suits your factory's conditions is the key to creating a safety and comfortable working environment.
| Collection method | Features |
|---|---|
filter expression
|
This system captures particles through a physical filter. It has a simple structure and can be managed without specialized knowledge. filter needs to be replaced periodically. |
Disc type
|
The particles are collected by colliding with a disk that rotates at high speed. As there is no filter, there is an advantage that industrial disposal is not generated when filter replacement. |
Cyclone type (filter-less type)
|
It separates particles using centrifugal force. It is said that the particle size that can be collected by a general cyclone is only a few micrometers or more, and the collection efficiency is inferior to that of electric and disc types. However, the advantage is that there are fewer replacement parts. |
Electrostatic precipitator
|
It uses electrostatic force to adsorb and capture oil, and can capture even fine particles. However, the initial investment is high, and care must be taken when handling the high-voltage equipment. |
How to install mist collector
There are several installation methods for mist collector. Selecting the installation method that best suits the working environment of your factory is important to maximize performance of mist collector.
[When the processing area is sealed] Direct intake method
The "direct intake method" is an installation method used for machine tools whose machining areas are sealed. With the direct intake method, it is installed on machines that perform precision work in closed spaces, such as CNC lathes and machining centers. It can efficiently suck in oil mist generated from the machining area, maintaining the cleanliness inside the machine tool.
[When the processing area is open] Local intake method
The "local intake system" is often used for machine tools with open processing areas. With the local intake system, a hood is installed near the source of dust or oil mist, and air is sucked in locally. The local intake system is an installation method suitable for machines with exposed processing areas, such as press machines and general-purpose lathes.
[Other] Wide-area intake system
The wide-area intake system is a method of drawing in air from the entire work space and collecting oil mist in the air. It is sometimes installed in combination with the "direct intake system" or "local intake system" that address specific work areas. Because it purifies air over a wide area, it helps maintain the air quality throughout the factory. In practice, there are cases where air conditioners with mist collector functions are installed, or small mist collector are installed in various locations.
Apiste 's mist collector
Apiste 's high-performance mist collector, the GME-S-Pro/eco series, is mist collector that pursues ease of maintenance, collection performance, and energy saving.
In factories where mist collector are required, the conditions that generate oil mist vary from site to site, including differences in cutting oil, processing methods, workpieces, etc. In addition, the maintenance systems at each site and performance required of mist collector also vary.
To meet the various needs of each site, Apiste offers two mist collectors in its lineup: the GME-S-Pro series, a professional and eco-friendly model that maintains performance, and the GME-S-eco series, an eco-friendly mist collector with the industry's highest air volume.
High-performance mist collector GME-S-Pro series
Apiste 's high-performance mist collector, the GME-S-Pro series, features multi-step collection and positive pressure drainage, making mist collector maintenance-free for a long period of time. Furthermore, the industry's first split body allows for easy overhaul, maintaining performance for a long period of time.
In addition, the PM motor* and inverter allow for airflow control, making it energy-efficient. "filter and discs get clogging," "dirt accumulates inside," "it's difficult to disassemble"... This mist collector will eliminate the frustrations you may have had on the job site.
