  • Publication number: 20190060804
    Abstract: A system for collecting shaving remnants and excess lubrication fluids emanating from a mechanical cutting machine, comprising a catch basin, drain filter, quick connection couplings, fluid reservoir, and pump system for reticulating captured lubricating fluid. The catch basin securely fastens to a cutting machine, while the removable backsplash is deployed at an upstanding angle relative to the catch basin in order to capture superfluous materials liberated from a pipe threading, reaming or cutting tool work piece. The backsplash doubles as a sealable lid capable of retaining the contents of the catch basin eliminating unwanted spillage and allowing for safe transport. The fluid is filtered and collected within the fluid reservoir, whereafter a pump draws the oil through a second filter element to reuse the lubricating fluid in the tool operation to create a closed loop system. Quick connect fittings compartmentalize the system to prevent leaks during maintenance or service.
