PRAB Metal Chip Processing Case Studies
Application: Brass Chips
This installation solved a number of problems for a Michigan based manufacturer of hose fittings. Because of the company's dramatic growth, the existing chip system needed additional capacity. The customer selected a complete PRAB in-floor collection and process system dedicated to brass chips and oil. The original PRAB system now processes steel chips as required.
Designed Capacity: 2,500 lbs/hr
Brass System Includes:
• Three in-floor Harpoon™ collection conveyors
• Steel belt elevating conveyor
• Model-R parts separator
• AD (air discharge) chip wringer
• Recirculating fines conveyor
• Chip storage silo 1,500 ft3
• Controls
Proven Benefits:
• Reduction in labor costs handling wet chips and spills
• Eliminate the handling of dry chips. Truck pulls under silo, vibratory bin discharger is activated, metering dry chips as driver pulls forward
• Improved housekeeping
• Reduction of cutting oil expense due to recovery and reuse of fluids
• Filtration is enhanced by automatic fines removal |
