Sump-side maintenance: T.O.S.S. + Green Machine
For machine shops that maintain individual reservoirs sump by sump, dedicated equipment provides reservoir-level coolant maintenance. T.O.S.S. controls tramp oil, while the Green Machine reduces sump-cleaning labor. C.R.O.S.S. can be evaluated when fluid consumption, disposal volume, or service workload creates a shop-wide recycling requirement.
Coolant-management equipment built for machine shops
EdjeTech builds and services coolant-management equipment in Sullivan, Ohio. The company combines more than 40 years of fluid-management experience with product-specific performance and application support for system sizing, coolant compatibility, replacement parts, and ownership requirements.

| Equipment | Role | Application | More information |
|---|---|---|---|
| C.R.O.S.S.2–25 GPM | Recycling | The central recycling system for machine shops with shop-wide coolant recovery requirements. Portable dirty-coolant collection is standard, with optional clean-coolant piping or a hybrid delivery configuration. | View → |
| Green Machine55–70 GPM | Sump cleaner | Air-powered portable sump vacuum. A typical manual cleanout that can require about four hours can be completed in approximately 15 minutes. The unit is the recommended EdjeTech equipment for portable batch transfer. | View → |
| T.O.S.S.2–50 GPM | Tramp oil | Autonomous tramp-oil separation for individual machine sumps, large reservoirs, pits, and parts washers. | View → |
| Paper bed + magneticModules | Filtration | Run alone or combined: a 98%-efficient ferrous separator paired with a paper bed for non-ferrous and general solids. Grinding and screw-machine chip loads. | View → |
| S.O.F.Oil-side | Straight oil | For shops on straight cutting oil, and for filtering a plant's own hydraulic, quench, EDM, and gear oils. | View → |

Machine-shop coolant recycling and filtration
- 01
When does shop-wide coolant recycling make sense?
C.R.O.S.S. is evaluated when coolant is managed across multiple machines and consumption, contamination, disposal volume, or service workload calls for coordinated recovery. Machine count alone does not determine fit. Operations focused on individual reservoirs may be better served by T.O.S.S. for tramp-oil control or the Green Machine for sump cleaning.
- 02
How is a C.R.O.S.S. configuration selected?
An EdjeTech engineer selects model capacity and portable, piped, or hybrid coolant transfer from coolant volume, required processing rate, contaminant load, service schedule, and facility layout.
Review C.R.O.S.S. → - 03
Can I add recycling without trenching the shop floor?
Yes. A Green Machine or another portable device collects dirty coolant from individual reservoirs and delivers it to C.R.O.S.S. Clean coolant can be returned by portable equipment without central piping.
Batch configuration → - 04
Will recycling work with our specific coolant?
EdjeTech reviews the coolant, contaminant load, metals processed, and operating conditions before recommending equipment. Lead-contaminated and graphite-loaded coolant require application-specific evaluation.

Do you still support equipment we bought years ago?
EdjeTech can identify available parts, media, documentation, and technical support for current and legacy equipment from the model or nameplate number. Availability depends on the installed model and component.
