Hello,

I have been the Maint Supervisor at a machine shop for about 3 years now. Our biggest problems by far are chip conveyors. We have 140 Cnc machines, machining diecast aluminum for Honda automotive engines.
Most of the machines are Nashida's with Bunri chip systems. We also have some Mazaks and Okuma's with Mayfran concept series.
I honestly think we are making such a small chip that it never settles to the bottom to allow the conveyor to do its job. Im told that we cannot cut bigger chips due to surface roughness specs.
Any suggestions on manufacturers that i can check out for future machines?

thanks,
Bob
