A method for filtering out foreign particles from a cooling lubricant used in a process of machining a workpiece includes providing an inherently stable, flow-porous filter element. The filter element comprises a porous main body made of joined plastics particles and having an afflux surface and a porous coating on the afflux surface for surface filtration. The porous coating first component particles and/or fibres, second component anti-adhesion particles to mitigate the adhesion of filtered out material to the porous coating and to facilitate cleaning of the filter element, with the first component particles and/or fibres and the second component particles being mixed in the porous coating, a solidified inorganic binder, and a set adhesive. The solidified inorganic binder and the set adhesive bind the first component particles and/or fibres and the second component particles to each other and to the porous main body. The cooling lubricant is first passed through the porous coating and thereafter through the porous main body of the filter element.

Filter element with coating for surface filtration

A filter element of sintered-together plastics particles having substantially the shape of a narrow, hollow box with two large, zigzag or corrugated first side walls, two narrow second side walls interconnecting the first side walls, a closed bottom side and an opposite open side, with the peaks and valleys of the first side walls extending in the bottom side to the open side and the filter element, at the open side, having a head for attachment which is elongated and constitutes at least one flow passage, characterized in that the filter element comprises two unified halves each containing one of the first side walls that a foot of synthetic resin is cast on the bottom side, and that the head consists of synthetic resin and is cast on the first and second side walls such that it surrounds with a first part of its heights the first and second side walls on the outside and the projects with a second part of its heights beyond the first and second side walls so as to cover the same at the ends thereof, and in that the head forms in the second part of its height, in the at least one flow passage an, in terms of flow, advantageous transition from the zigzag or corrugated space confined between the two first side walls to a substantially rectangular cross-section of flow.
