At IndustryNest, we partner with leaders in industrial solutions to ensure clean and efficient operational environments. KEM's high-quality oil skimmers represent the pinnacle of meticulous oil removal technology, designed for both remote locations and easily accessible sites.

Types of Oil Skimmers

Explore our extensive range of industrial-grade oil skimmers designed for skimming floating oils, fuels, fats, and grease from water surfaces. Our offerings include:

Floating Oil Skimmers: Ideal for skimming oils that float on the surface of water.

Fixed Oil Skimmers and Gravity Oil Skimmers: Perfect for set locations where oil accumulates regularly.

Weir Skimmers: Best for situations where oil flows over a barrier.

Drum Skimmers, Belt Skimmers, and Rope Mop Skimmers: These skimmers are tailored for different viscosities and types of oil, ensuring efficient removal.

Industrial Applications of Oil Skimmers

Steel Industry: Oil skimmers are critical in the steel industry to manage spills and leaks, enhancing tool life by removing tramp oil from coolant.

CNC Machines and Tramp Oil: Specialized skimmers for CNC machines improve operational cleanliness and extend tool life by removing tramp oil from cutting fluids.

Manufacturing Facilities: Enhance machine performance and extend equipment lifespan by removing oil from coolant and degrease tanks.

Water Treatment: Utilize KEM skimmers to manage oil levels in treatment ponds, helping maintain clean waterways.

How Oil Skimmers Work

Weir Skimmers: Weir skimmers skim the surface layer off water, collecting oil in a central hopper from where it is pumped to storage. Options include stainless steel models for industrial use and Elastec Weir Skimmers, which adjust automatically to varying water levels.

Oil Skimmer Technologies: Our skimmers incorporate advanced technologies using oleophilic materials, brushes, belts, ropes, and weirs to attract and collect oil efficiently. These can be installed as floating units or fixed/mounted systems, depending on the application.

Selecting the Right Oil Skimmer: When choosing an oil skimmer, consider the type of oil, the characteristics of the water surface, and the flow rate. Factors like ease of installation, operational simplicity, maintenance needs, cost, and return on investment are also important.
