MITA Cooling Technologies offers advanced industrial cooling solutions: evaporative towers, dry coolers, adiabatic systems supported by parameter control panels. Reliability, precision, resource optimization: the cooling systems the metal processing industry needs.
Typical needs: high temperature jumps, precision machinery cooling, optimization of water and energy resources, reduced maintenance.
Cooling technologies offered: open cooling towers also mounted in the field, adiabatic coolers, dry coolers, IoT platforms.
1. Typical needs of the industry
The metalworking industry requires technologies that can ensure business continuity even in extremely harsh production environments.
A list of the main cooling needs of metalworking can be made, according to MITA Cooling Technologies’ decades of experience.
- Heat management for precision machinery. During operations such as cutting, welding, and heat treatment, the heat generated can affect product quality and equipment life. An effective cooling system is essential to dissipate this heat and ensure the stability of the production process.
- High temperature jumps. This involves cooling fluids that have experienced substantial temperature increases during industrial processes.
- Operational continuity and reliability. In the metal processing industry, operational continuity is critical: stopping for cooling system malfunctions can cause delays and increase costs or even compromise process accuracy.
- Efficiency and sustainability. Reducing water and energy consumption is more of a necessity than ever in this industry, where processes are often very energy intensive.
- Easy maintenance. Minimizing downtime through robust and easy-to-manage systems helps lower production costs.
- Remote control. Monitoring and optimizing performance through IoT platforms is the latest plus in advanced cooling systems.
