Scraper Belt
Chip Conveyor
Developed for transporting short, broken-type metal chips.
It performs the preliminary separation of metal chips from coolant,
enabling their transfer to a designated collection point.
General Features
Designed for Fine and Short Chips: Ideal for the efficient removal of fine, short, and powdery chips produced when machining cast iron, brass, bronze, or steel.
Scraper Principle: Chips are conveyed along the bottom of the tank by scraper blades, preventing accumulation and blockages.
High Durability: Reinforced steel scrapers and chain mechanism ensure long-lasting, reliable operation.
Compact and Quiet Operation: Fits easily into tight spaces and offers low-noise, vibration-free performance.
Coolant Management: Enables separation and recovery of coolant from chips, reducing fluid waste.
Low Maintenance: Simple mechanical design minimizes maintenance effort and maximizes service life.
Automation Compatibility: Fully compatible with central filtration systems, level sensors, and automatic start/stop controls.
Typical Applications: CNC machines, grinders, milling machines, and all machining processes generating fine or small chips.
Manufactured to European Standards: CE-certified design meeting the highest safety and quality requirements.
Standard Equipment:
Conveyor Pallet
Drive Motor
Control Panel

Frequently Asked Questions
Scraper Belt Conveyor
-
What types of chips is the Scraper Belt Conveyor suitable for?It is ideal for fine, short, or powder-like chips. Especially effective for materials such as cast iron, brass, bronze, and steel.
-
What is the difference between a Scraper Belt and a Magnetic Conveyor?Magnetic conveyors only work with ferromagnetic chips (e.g. steel), while Scraper Belt conveyors can handle both magnetic and non-magnetic materials. They also perform better in wet or coolant-rich environments.
-
Can the coolant be recovered from the chips?Yes. The system allows coolant to separate from chips and return to the tank, minimizing fluid loss and promoting reuse.
-
Does the conveyor risk clogging or overflow?No. Thanks to its scraper principle, chips are continuously moved along the tank bottom, reducing the risk of blockages. Overflow sensors can also be integrated for added safety.
-
Which machines is it compatible with?Fully compatible with CNC lathes, machining centers, grinders, and milling machines. Custom dimensions and connection options are available upon request.
-
Is maintenance complicated?Not at all. The mechanical structure is simple and easily accessible. Wide inspection covers make chain and scraper cleaning fast and effortless.
-
Can it be connected to an automation system?Yes. Scraper Belt conveyors can be integrated with level sensors, automatic start/stop control, and central filtration systems.
-
Is service support available outside Europe?Yes. Astor Europe provides international service and technical support through its global partner network.
