An emergency repair of a chip conveyor can shut down a plant until the problem can be repaired. Refurbishing your chip conveyors now, before you have a problem saves money in two ways; Rubin Engineering & Sales refurbishment services are a fraction of the cost of a new chip conveyor, and the risk of lost production and lost revenues due to a chip conveyor breakdown is greatly reduced.
We can refurbish chip conveyors and repair conveyor components under the tightest of deadlines to minimize downtime for preventative maintenance.

Tips for Chip Conveyor Selection for CNC Machines
It’s important to choose the right chip conveyor system for your CNC machines. To ensure you make the best decision, it’s important to consider the following factors:
- Material. A chip conveyor that is suitable for handling one type of material may not be the best choice for other materials. For example, aluminum, brass, and plastic may require a different chip conveyor type than cast iron.
- Chip type. Chip type is another crucial factor to consider when choosing a chip conveyor for your CNC shop. Different materials and machining processes produce chips ranging from fine to coarse and from small cuttings to big, stringy chips. Some chip conveyors are not suitable for all chip types, so it’s important to consider the type of chips the conveyor will be handling.
- Coolant. It can be expensive to buy and dispose of machine coolant. Choosing a filtering chip conveyor that effectively removes small particles from coolant extends coolant life, reduces disposal costs, and protects the coolant pump and tank from damage.
