There are different types of chip conveyors for different applications.

Scraper Type Chip Conveyors

These conveyors are mainly used for smaller chips. Especially for cast iron chips. Scrapers are tied between the chains that are running on the sprockets mounted on shafts. These scrapers carry the chips to the chip bin.

Slat Type Chip Conveyors

These conveyors are mainly used for long curly chips. Ideal for steel chips. It's also called cleat type conveyors. It's nothing but a hinged belt attached with the chain. It carries chips on it's surface to avoid any entangling of chips with the conveyor.

Magnetic Chip Conveyors

These conveyors are mainly used for the small wet ferrous chips. This helps in recovering the costly fluids that are used for machining. The chips fall on the stainless steel that is stand still. Conveyor is running below the stainless steel sheet. Magnets are connected to the chain. Chips stick to the magnets & carried to the chip bin. Fluid is recovered back to the tank.
