How does the vertical metal chip press work?

The working process of the vertical metal chip press is mainly based on the principle of physical compression, and its detailed working process is as follows:

• Feeding: Firstly, metal shavings and other waste materials are fed into the feeding device of the cake press. This process may be manual or automatic, depending on the model and configuration of the cake press. The automatic feeding function can greatly improve work efficiency and reduce labor costs.
• Compression: After the feeding is completed, the cake press starts. The hydraulic system generates strong pressure and pushes the hydraulic head downwards through the hydraulic cylinder. The pressure head compresses the metal shavings, while the mold fixes the metal shavings in a certain shape. During the compression process, air and impurities in the metal waste are squeezed out, resulting in an increase in the density and purity of the waste. As the pressure gradually increases, the metal shavings are tightly compacted together, forming a cake with a certain density and strength.
• Maintain pressure: When the pressure reaches the set value, the pressure head will remain for a period of time to ensure that the metal chips are fully compacted. This duration may vary depending on the model and compression requirements of the cake press.
• Discharge: After compression is completed, the compressed metal cake is discharged through the discharge device. The discharge device may include push rods, slides, etc. to ensure that the cake can smoothly detach from the mold and fall into the designated collection area.
• Collection and processing: The discharged metal cake can be collected and processed for subsequent processing. These cakes are not only easy to store and transport, but can also be recycled as renewable resources, helping to save resources and reduce environmental pollution.

In addition, the vertical metal chip press also has some significant features and advantages:

• Hydraulic transmission: Adopting hydraulic transmission method, it works smoothly, with high pressure and precision, ensuring the consistency of compression effect.
• Easy installation: The device is easy to install, without the need for complex installation steps and special tools.
• Fully automatic control: Some models adopt PLC fully automatic control, which reduces the difficulty of operation and improves production efficiency.
• Mold interchangeable: The mold can be replaced at any time to meet the compression requirements of metal waste of different specifications and shapes.
• Energy saving and environmental protection: Advanced hydraulic technology and cooling system are adopted to reduce energy consumption and noise pollution, which meets the energy-saving and environmental protection requirements of modern society.

In summary, the vertical metal chip compactor compresses metal waste into cakes through high-pressure physical compression, which has the advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, and environmental protection. It is one of the indispensable important equipment in modern industrial production.
