In the machining industry, effective chip management is of the utmost importance for businesses. Sarıgöl Konveyör offers effective solutions to this problem with its range of products. Following a thorough analysis by our dedicated team of experts, the machinery required for this section is presented as a project. The objective is to ensure that customers manage their chips in the most efficient manner.

When presenting a system solution, it is essential to properly identify the following issues:

  • Please advise whether there is a current system in place. Could you please clarify whether chips and oil are separated by any method? Please advise me as to the oil content of the chips in the current conditions.
  • Please can you advise on how the system should be fed? The customer must then indicate whether they require a forklift, manual labour, a lift, or a feeding conveyor.
  • Should an elevator be requested, it is imperative that information regarding the swarf trolleys is obtained. Could you please clarify whether the swarf trolleys are standard or if they come in different sizes? It is necessary to ascertain whether the existing swarf trolleys are suitable for use in elevators and to determine their dimensions.
  • Please specify the type of swarf or swarf that will be processed in this system. (Steel, brass, aluminium, cast iron, etc.) Details of these materials must also be ascertained. Could you please clarify the ratio of the different chip types?
  • Please advise me of the size of the chips that need to be processed. (Coiled, long, broken, dust, etc.) If the chips are to be mixed, the ratio of each type to be processed should be provided.
  • Could you please clarify what is used as the cooling fluid? (Emulsion, cutting oil, etc.) Detailed information about these oils should also be obtained.
  • Please can you confirm whether there are different oils present in the chips to be processed in the system, or whether the same coolant is always used? If different types are to be processed, what are their ratios?
  • Could you please provide me with information on the hourly capacity of the chips that will be processed?
  • What is the customer’s priority here: oil recovery or chip drying? Or are both equally important?
  • Please can you advise on the correct procedure for discharging the chips after they have been removed from the system? Could you please confirm whether an exit conveyor is required, and what the required discharge height is?
  • I would like to inquire whether a silo is necessary for the transportation of dry chips.
  • Please advise whether any additional cleaning is required for the recovered oil.

To ensure the best possible outcome, it is essential to correctly perform the above analysis.
