Filter Focus
Industrial Engineer in Midrand

We strive to eliminate contaminant related wear and failures in light and heavy industrial equipment. Taking control of wear by establishing the concept of combination filtration locally and internationally.

Our aim is to provide industry with substantial and quantifiable improvements to Plant and Asset protection, while diligently considering and conserving the environment. We combine expertise in the fields of Filtration, Lubrication and Tribology in order to offer an advanced and comprehensive service to our Customers. Our philosophy at the Wear Control Group is one which encompasses the protection and optimisation of Plant and Equipment through sound tribological principles, providing practical and proven solutions, yielding considerable financial benefit for our Customers. It is a fact that there is no such thing as oil or diesel which is clean enough. The cleaner the oil or diesel, the longer your equipment will last. Filter Focus specialises in the development, design and manufacture of high efficiency, high capacity, ultra-fine, off-line filtration systems. Throughout industry, the science of Lubrication and Filtration has been grossly neglected. It is commonly accepted that the lubricants supplied are adequate for the task and that the filtration supplied by the Original Equipment Manufacturers will protect machine components. In-line filtration is a minimum protection at best, with Filter Focus on your side, you can now close the technology gap. Filter Focus has combined the most efficient and cost effective filtration solutions with the world’s most advanced range of lubricating oils and greases. Huge technological gains have been achieved in lubrication in recent years. If the oil in the wheel is frequently changed, it will cost more to move the wheel from A to B. b. If the lubricant in the wheel is contaminated, the wheel will fail and result in undesired costs in order to move the wheel from A to B. It thus stands to reason that if the lubricant on the wheel was the most technically advanced lubricant available and was kept clean with the most innovative filtration systems, then the wheel will turn indefinitely, thereby ensuring maximum profits. Our aim is to reduce operating expenditure and increase equipment reliability and life while diligently considering and conserving the environment. The current global financial crisis has unfortunately added salt to the wound and has brought all Industry to a point where every penny has to be justified. Available budgets therefore need to be spent wisely. Reduce the negative effect that an operation has on the Environment. Lubrication is addressed on critical areas of the plant with superior technology so as to ensure optimal efficiency and better performance, leading to quantifiable cost reductions. Filtration is addressed so as to ensure optimal life of lubricants and equipment. Oil storage, distribution and handling techniques are addressed and Best Practices implemented. The plant or equipment is audited in order to establish the current situation with regards lubrication and filtration and thereby determining our starting point. All data is compiled so as to identify where improvements need to be implemented. After implementation of improvements, all relevant data is again compiled and savings are calculated by comparing the results after upgrade to those obtained prior to upgrade.
