FLEXO Oil Skimmers Are Now Made In The U.S.A. and Features German Engineering.
The oil skimmer is a equipment that removes floating tramp oils and some floating particles on the surface of a fluid. FLEXO oil skimmers work because we are using patent flexible chains or O-rings (mainly used for part washers, cleaning baths, etc.) as the conveying material to which tramp oil is more likely to stick than the fluid it is floating on.

In some cases oil skimmers may be used to pre-treat a liquid (parts washer, cleaning tanks, etc.). In this case, the oil skimmer removes as much of the floating oil as possible before more expensive and time consuming operations are performed.
Tramp oils (hydrocarbon based lubricants and process oils)
Biological agents (bacteria and fungi)
Fluids carried in by metal and material surfaces from previous processing
Oil and grease leakage from machines
