A cart with chips containing coolant enter the chip processing system e. g. via fork lift or chip cart dumper. Depending on their shape chips have to be resized by a chip crusher. A conveyor transports the free-flowing chips to the centrifuge, if tramp metals are occurring a screener is necessary. The parabolic or lifting bottom centrifuge separates the coolant from the chips. These dry chips can be conveyed into e. g. a briquetting press, several containers or directly into a melting furnace. The separated coolant is collected in a tank and can be reused.

The entire system is controlled by a central control cabinet. Depending on the requirements concerning e. g. Industrie 4.0 the system can be expanded with additional components, such as automatic feeding via an automatic guided vehicle (AGV) or remote access.

The patented Vetamat system separates the metal chips or grinding sludge reliably from the coolant.

With the add-on system the Vetamat can optionally be expanded with a chip crusher, tramp metal separator, chip cart dumper, material separation as well as coolant treatment.

In the fully automatic operation the wet chips or the sludge fall through the infeed hopper into the drum of the lifting bottom centrifuge. At this point the chips meet the rotating lifting bottom and are pressed against the drum wall under high centrifugal forces. The hydraulically activated lifting bottom moves the chips and/or the sludge upwards to the slot sieve where the liquids are separated from the chips.

After a few lifting cycles the centrifuged chips are carried over the edge of the drum and quit the centrifuge into the chip cart or discharge conveyor. The centrifuged coolant can be returned to the production or pumped back to further treatment.
