PRAB adds chip removal and coolant filtration conveyor to product line
PRAB now offers the Live Link™ Filter Conveyor chip removal and coolant filtration system that easily integrates into machining centers.
The innovative technology features a steel belt conveyor to remove a broad spectrum of chips from the machining center, while recycling coolant back into the coolant tank at the same time. Four Live Link hinges are placed strategically on the steel belt and unhinge at the discharge point. They remain open and scrape particulate off the conveyor bed. As each hinge reaches the surface, they revert into the steel belt, carrying particulate with them to downstream processing equipment. This continuous operation reduces maintenance and production downtime.
New coolant purchases are reduced and surface finish is improved with the Live Link’s permanent media drum filtration, clarifying coolant down to 50 micron. In addition, the protected filter media drum prevents damage to the primary filter, resulting in a longer life cycle.
“The Live Link is an economical, environmentally friendly choice for many operations,” notes Tim Hanna, Managing Director of PRAB’s Fluid Filtration division. “We’re now able to offer our customers an at the source solution that reduces maintenance and increases productivity to meet the demands of various markets, which ultimately grows their bottom line.”
