Modular Chip Processing Systems

Compact, skid-mounted scrap metal equipment for turnings volume reduction and solid-liquid separation of small to medium volumes of flowable chips. Fluid reclamation and dry chip output make this scrap removal system ideal for smaller shops

Industrial centrifuge designed for effectively separating metal chips from cutting fluids. The PRAB Metal Chip Wringer/Centrifuge uses 600G’s of centrifugal force to spin fluid from metal chips. This process is the most cost-effective solution for producing dry metal chips—which are more valuable to the scrap dealer. Wringers also help to reclaim up to 98% of spent cutting fluid for recycling and reuse. Metal chip wringers/centrifuges handle various types of metal scrap, including aluminum, brass, cast iron, steel, stainless steel, and more.

Remove up to 85% of fluid from swarf and filter cake. Separate liquid from filter cake and swarf for optimal coolant recovery and savings on material disposal costs. Disposing hazardous grinding swarf or filter cake can be difficult and expensive. PRAB’s horizontal screw press processes material that is 40 to 50% wet with coolant or cutting oils to remove up to 85% of fluid. Can be used as a stand-alone unit or in combination with the Dualpak™ Briquetter for coolant recovery and retainment of up to 95% of fluids.

Move or dump more scrap with heavy-duty dumpers and industrial carts. PRAB’s line of industrial carts and automatic dumpers help move wet or dry metal chips, turnings and die scrap, safely and easily to and from scrap metal equipment. Customize the model and capacity cart you need with tow links, dumping frames, pouring baffles (contains cutting fluids), drain plugs, drain racks and casters designed to meet your floor conditions. Mechanical or automatic hydraulic dumpers help simplify the process of unloading carts.
