Eriez' Chip and Parts Conveyors employ a unique self-contained, continuous series of permanent magnets to automatically move and elevate ferrous turnings, chips, parts and small stampings along the outer surface of the stainless steel slider plate. The conveyors feature the company's Tuf-Trac internal track system to allow quiet, virtually maintenance-free operation and ensure long service life. Chip and Parts Conveyors are designed with a heavy duty, enclosed construction to prevent jamming or clogging of objects being conveyed. Custom designed units can be submerged in coolant sumps or quench tanks, or may be located under punch presses or other equipment to move chips, parts or scrap. The working face is self-cleaning.

coolant
Fluid that reduces temperature buildup at the tool/workpiece interface during machining. Normally takes the form of a liquid such as soluble or chemical mixtures (semisynthetic, synthetic) but can be pressurized air or other gas. Because of water’s ability to absorb great quantities of heat, it is widely used as a coolant and vehicle for various cutting compounds, with the water-to-compound ratio varying with the machining task. See cutting fluid; semisynthetic cutting fluid; soluble-oil cutting fluid; synthetic cutting fluid.
