The heavy-duty answer to steel slag and
sticky metal sludge

In an auto parts workshop in Jiangsu, chips and slag used to be moved with shovels. One ENDUSTMAN EHFD75 changed that — and cut cleaning time per machine from 20 minutes to 5.

THE CLIENT

An automotive parts factory in Jiangsu, China — a workshop full of lathes and milling machines, running metal all day, every day.

Every machine in the plant produces two kinds of waste: heavy steel slag from lathe work, and fine iron chips mixed with cutting fluid from milling — a sticky mess that glues itself to the floor.

Cleaning was slow, physical and never quite done. The plant needed a machine built for this kind of dirt, not a household-style vacuum.

THE CHALLENGE

Meet the two enemies of this workshop

Both are common in metalworking. Both defeated every cleaning method the plant had tried.

ENEMY 01 · FROM THE LATHES

High-strength steel slag

Heavy, sharp chunks that ordinary vacuums simply cannot lift. Before, workers had to scrape them up with iron shovels, piece by piece.

Old way: shovels, sore backs, and 20 minutes around every machine.

ENEMY 02 · FROM THE MILLS

Iron chips + cutting fluid

Fine chips soaked in coolant stick to the floor like wet cement — brooms glide over it, and it builds up shift after shift.

Old way: sweeping that moved the mess around without removing it.

THE SOLUTION

EHFD75 — a machine that finally matched the dirt

The plant replaced manual scraping with a single ENDUSTMAN EHFD75. Its side-channel high-pressure blower delivers 34 kPa of suction — steel slag, sticky metal sludge, even chips hiding in floor cracks all come up in one pass.

Suction that lifts slag

34 kPa pulls up what shovels used to scrape — big slag chunks, wet sludge and chips in floor cracks. Cleaning one machine’s surroundings dropped from 20 minutes to 5.

A filter that understands metal dust

The membrane-coated filter traps powder-fine metal dust and washes clean for reuse — no constant filter purchases. Airborne dust in the workshop fell by roughly 80%.

One-person emptying

The 100 L quick-release bucket holds a full day of chips. Split the buckets, tip into the recycling bin — a job that took two workers now takes one.

Built for hard shifts

Overload, over-current and phase-loss protection plus splash resistance against cutting fluid. It runs 24 hours straight — even when someone forgets to switch it off.

CASE SUMMARY · AUTO PARTS WORKSHOP, JIANGSU

Floors and machines stay clean. Slag, chips and sludge are removed in minutes, not shovelled for hours.

Workers breathe easier. With airborne dust down about 80%, the double-mask days are over.

Lower costs, less waste. Washable filters and one-person emptying cut daily running costs.

Healthier machines. Less dust on equipment means fewer breakdowns — about 50% fewer, by the client’s count.
