Chip Conveyors
Mayfran is a global leader in the manufacturing of chip conveyors for machine tools, with a wide variety of options serving nearly any material and coolant type and material removal rate. Chip conveyors, including drag conveyors, allow you to extend the period between tank cleanouts from daily (when using chip trays) to as long as quarterly, reducing maintenance costs and machine downtime.
Chip-Tote® chip conveyors are recognized for reliable and efficient handling of chips from machine tools. Using a hinged steel belt conveyor, Chip-Tote chip conveyors easily handle hot chips, wet or dry chips, borings, tunings and other scrap material. With a range of belt pitches available, these basic chip conveyors fit just about any machine tool application.
Drag conveyors (also called scraper conveyors) are well suited for applications with dry cast iron or wet cast iron or aluminum applications generating fine chips where coolant cleanliness is not critical. Custom-designed to fit the application, they can be extended to lengths as required for moving material short or long distances.
