PROBLEM
Our client needed to vacuum metal chips directly from CNC machinery to automatically load their briquetting machines. The briquetting machine compresses metal waste using high pressure into briquettes. It’s typically used to reduce storage costs and streamline recycling operations.
SOLUTION
Metal chips are collected inside the CNC machinery and then conveyed through a pipeline to the Depureco HF vacuum and subsequently discharged into the briquetting machine’s hopper.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
- The vacuum is generated by a side channel turbine;
- The material enters the vacuum, encounters a metal cyclone, loses speed, and falls into the collection hopper;
- The filter safeguards the motor from materials that might ascend and damage it;
- The collected material is automatically discharged (various discharge options are available).
