Cut costs, keep clean!!

Savings in operating costs and total economy have become increasingly imminent in today’s competitive industrial activity. Equally important have become the environment laws. 25% of the cooling/cutting agents used is lost around the chips. Which has to be retrieved from the chips to reduce the process cost to keep the work place clean and accident free. Unique Products offers compact centrifuge units as a dedicated centrifuge for each machine or as common centrifuge for a group machines in capacities of 50 kgs/hr, 150 kgs/hr, 500 kgs/hr and 1000 kgs/hr

ADVANTAGES OF CHIP CENTRIFUGE:

  1. Adjustable Speed to Meet Individual Requirement.
  2. Minimum Number of Parts, Resulting In Smooth Running and No Maintenance.
  3. Heat Treated, One-Piece Long Life Bowl.
  4. Superb De-Oiling.
  5. Small and Compact.
  6. Trouble Free Performance.
  7. Maximum Oil Reclaiming From Chips.
  8. Low Price.

HOW IT OPERATES

Small metal chips continuously and regularly fed into the centrifuge hopper by a feeding conveyor. The chips slide into the fast spinning wringer bowl and are accelerated upto the bowl’s RPM. High centrifugal forces drive the chips up the bowl’s side wall and over the coolant exit slots and pores towards the upper edge of the bowl. In this process the coolant is swings off the chips and forced out via the coolant exit slots. The dried chips pass over the upper edge of the bowl and are out via the wringer housing and disĀ­charge hopper into an extractor conveyor or swarf bin.

DESIGN FEATURES

Unique Products Model UP-50, UP-500 and UP-1000 are designed and constructed to offer high performance, maximum reliability, long life and with no maintenance. The bowl is from special alloy steel, using high precision machining techniques and is heat treated to suit, the function. The main shaft and bearing housing is a high speed spindle assembly, treated the total assembly is mounted on antivibration pads resulting in life enhancement of the unit
