Model System "A" -Metal Chips

Metal Chips from machining operations are delivered to receiving hopper (RH) from which they are conveyed by a hinged steel belt conveyor (AC) to a vibrating screen (parts separator) (VS) for separation of the occasional tool or part. Chips passing through the screen report by gravity to a horizontal bowl continuous chip wringer (centrifuge) (CW) where residual cutting fluids are extracted and discharged to effluent collection sump (ES). Dry metal chips are discharged via chute (CC) to a container. The entire system is controlled from master control panel (CP) fitted with a programmable logic controller.
