Cincinnati, Ohio – New SFcompact Chip Conveyor filters coolant to 50 microns and handles virtually all chip types and sizes, from stringy stainless steel to fine brass and aluminum, without the problems associated with traditional drum-type chip conveyors. Instead of relying on a bulky, drum-based design that has a large footprint and takes an entire day to service, SF compact uses patented, self-cleaning dual filters that can be removed, if necessary, in 15 minutes after removing the chip conveyor.

Because the filtering system is integrated within the rigid frame, SFcompact takes up no more floor space than a typical hinge-belt conveyor and, in most cases, will work with the existing coolant tank. SFcompact’s self-cleaning dual filters eliminate the problem of chips wrapping around a drum, thus causing blockages, damage and machine tool downtime. This makes it perfect for machining a wide range of materials that produce a variety of chip sizes and types. A hardened track, rigid frame construction and other wear-resistant components assure long life and trouble-free operation. LNS designs, manufactures, sells and supports bar feeding systems, chip and coolant management systems, work support devices, and air filtration systems worldwide.
