Video: A Solution for Challenging Chip Removal
Depending on the material being machined, turning operations can produce tangles of chips that can clog single-belt conveyors. Read how one company found the solution with a double-belt design.
This Filtration System Takes The Cake
For chip removal and coolant filtration in many CNC machining operations, capital cost and proven efficiency still make disposable media designs the common choice. Permanent media chip removal and coolant filtration systems, however, have quickly become a viable option for helping to lower operating and maintenance costs in certain applications. In high-production operations, these systems can increase tooling life and coolant life and reduce nozzle clogging. The systems also are environmentally beneficial and provide cost savings related to media replacement and operator involvement.
