Machine tool chip conveyor, also known as chip conveyor, is a machine used to transport metal chips cut by metal cutting machines to a certain location.
Machine tool chip conveyor classification: divided into chain plate chip conveyor, scraper chip conveyor, magnetic chip conveyor, and spiral chip conveyor. Summary of the characteristics of various types of machine tool chip conveyor and chip conveyor:
1. Spiral chip conveyor
This device drives a rotating shaft with spiral blades through a reducer to push the material forward (backward), concentrate it at the discharge port, and fall into the designated position. The machine has a compact structure, occupies small space, is easy to install and use, has few transmission links, and has an extremely low failure rate. It is especially suitable for machine tools with narrow chip removal space and other chip removal forms that are difficult to install.
2. Scraper type chip removal conveyor
The scraper chip removal device has a wide range of conveying speeds, high work efficiency, and diverse effective chip removal widths, providing ample selection range, such as CNC machine tools, machining centers, grinders, and automatic lines. The effect of processing metal sand particles, abrasive particles, and aluminum chips in the automotive industry is relatively good. The scraper is equipped with special chains on both sides, and the height and distribution spacing of the scraper can be randomly designed, resulting in stable transmission, compact structure, and good strength. And a comprehensive filtering system can be formed by adding steel mesh recoil, scraper, vortex separator, oil-water separator, etc. according to user needs to improve product surface processing accuracy, save coolant, and reduce labor intensity of workers. It is a widely used machine tool auxiliary device.
3. Chip collecting vehicle
The chip collection truck is used to collect various types of chips conveyed by the chip conveyor from the machine tool. The bottom is equipped with wheels, which can send the chips out of the work site for centralized cleaning. It is divided into two types: dry and wet. The dry material box can be tilted and the chips can be poured out. The wet type adds a double layer filter screen and oil drain valve on the dry foundation to facilitate the separation of the coolant in the chips from the chips, playing a recycling and environmental protection role, And according to different chip discharge quantities and user requirements, various chip collection vehicles with different volumes and functions can be designed
