Chip transport

Scraper chip conveyor

KÜMA scraper chip conveyors ensure the continuous removal of short and broken chips as they are produced when machine tools are used. Suitable for use in both dry and wet machining.

The chips discharging from the machine tool drop over the „feed area" of the scraper chip conveyor to the bottom of the chip trough. There the chips are picked up by scraper plates connected to endless chains on both sides and transported to the discharge edge.

  • Sturdy, coolant-leakproof chip trough made of steel plate

  • Interchangeable scraper plates

  • Bush conveyor chain with hardened rollers

  • Worm-gear motor as drive

  • Safety slip clutch as overload protection

  • Drive and tensioning station in the discharge area

  • Incline angle from 0 ° – 60 °

  • Cooling lubricant cleaning by means of wedge-wire screen or sieve

No heating of the machine bed
Simplified machine bed construction
Longer service life of the cooling lubricant
Chips and cooling lubricant are separated
Significant savings in transportation costs
Reliable and maintenance-free operation

Slat-band chain chip conveyor

KÜMA slat-band chain chip conveyors ensure the continuous removal of long and mixed chips as they are produced when machine tools are used. Suitable for use in both dry and wet machining.

The chips discharging from the machine tool drop over the „feed area" of the slat-band conveyor onto the top part of the slat band and is transported to the discharge edge.

  • Sturdy, coolant-leakproof chip trough made of steel plate

  • Interchangeable scraper plates

  • Bush conveyor chain with hardened rollers

  • Worm-gear motor as drive

  • Safety slip clutch as overload protection
