Our customer, operating in the metal processing industry, places great importance on production quality in laser cutting processes that require high precision. The nitrogen gas used in laser cutting lines removes oxygen and other gases from the cutting area, resulting in a smooth, shiny, and color-consistent appearance on the cut sheet surface. This preserves the surface quality of the products, eliminates the need for additional finishing processes, and increases overall production efficiency.
Our customer was sourcing the nitrogen gas required for its laser cutting processes from external suppliers in high-pressure cylinders. However, over time, this method increased operating costs and jeopardized supply continuity. Disruptions in cylinder replacement, shipping, and storage processes led to efficiency losses in production planning.
This structure has brought the following challenges:
In line with increasing production volumes and sustainability goals, on-site nitrogen gas production has become not just an alternative but a strategic necessity for our customer.
As a result of the field analysis conducted by Mikropor’s expert team, an integrated on-site nitrogen production system tailored to our customer’s production line has been designed.
The system consists of an MNG Pro Series Nitrogen Generator, MKE Series Air Dryer, GON Series Air Filter, 220 Bar Booster, and Compressor. With its energy efficiency-focused design, the system offers high performance and low operating costs, and has been phased into the production line without interruption.
Achievements:
“Maintaining continuity and quality standards in our production processes is of vital importance to us. Thanks to Mikropor’s advanced engineering approach, we can now produce nitrogen gas in our own facility, at the purity we require, and without interruption. Following the commissioning of the system, supply delays, cylinder changes, and production stoppages have been completely eliminated. Having a system that allows us to continuously produce nitrogen in the desired quantity and purity at much lower costs has been a valuable investment for our business. Today, we have not only reduced our production costs, but this investment has also strengthened us in terms of operational continuity, energy efficiency, and environmental sustainability. With Mikropor’s support, our production is now safer, more efficient, and much more sustainable. We would like to thank the Mikropor team once again for their flawless service throughout the entire process, from site inspection to sales, installation, and after-sales support.
Thanks to Mikropor’s innovative filtration approach, the customer has not only reduced operational costs but also ensured continuity and efficiency in production processes. In addition, a healthy work environment was maintained, harmful oil vapors to which workers were exposed were significantly reduced and ambient air quality improved. This case study demonstrates how Mikropor’s customer-focused engineering solutions create strategic value in high-demand industrial environments, not only in terms of operational efficiency, but also occupational safety and employee health.
