Chip Wringer About

WHAT IS A CHIP WRINGER?

A Chip Wringer (also known as a Centrifugal Chip Dryer) is a mechanical separation machine that uses centrifugal force to remove residual oil or coolant from metal machining chips. It helps in recovering expensive oils, reducing disposal weight, and making chips recyclable and dry for further processing.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

1. Wet metal chips (steel, aluminium, brass, etc.) are fed into the rotating basket of the wringer.
2. A high-speed rotating drum generates centrifugal force.
3. Oil/coolant is thrown outward and collected through drain outlets.
4. The dry chips remain inside the basket and are discharged or manually removed.
5. Oil/coolant is collected and reused or stored.
