Product catalog summary
Specifications:
  • The FC500 centrifuge is constructed with a sturdy metal structure painted RAL 7016 and anchored to a rigid platform.
  • Components in contact with swarf are made from wear-resistant materials.
  • Features include anti-vibration dampers, a washing inlet valve, a centrifuge washing pump, and a 2-meter drain pipe for recovered cooling lubricant.
  • Equipped with an unbalancing sensor, junction box, and wiring.
Description:

The FC500 centrifuge is designed for processing metal swarf, both ferrous and non-ferrous, to recover cooling lubricants used in machine tools. It supports continuous feeding and is suitable for metal chips up to 2 cm in length. Under optimal conditions, it can reduce swarf moisture content to 1.5%.

Optional Features:
  • Custom support structure with discharge hopper.
  • Alternative RAL painting options.
  • Cutting fluid collection tank with level sensors and transfer pump.
  • Electrical control panel.
Performance Characteristics:
  • Swarf should be short or not exceed 2 x 1 or 2 cm in size.
  • Continuous and uniform loading is necessary for optimal performance.
  • A minimum washing flow rate must be maintained to prevent clogging.
Technical Data:
  • Dimensions: 1100 x 1290 mm
  • Weight: 780 kg
  • Power: 4 kW
  • Voltage: 230/400 V
  • RPM: 1,480 rpm
  • Hourly production varies by material density, with approximate values provided for brass, steel, aluminum, stainless steel, copper, and cast iron.
Application Analysis Example:

An example analysis showed a wet residue of 2% from a 1000 kg brass sample with 15% initial wet content, recovering 130 kg of oil per hour. This equates to 228,800 kg of oil recovered annually, assuming 8-hour workdays over 220 days.

Note:

Residual swarf moisture after centrifugation can be confirmed by testing specific swarf samples.

FC500 CENTRIFUGE DESCRIPTION The FC500 centrifuge is a unit suitable for centrifuging metal, ferrous and non-ferrous swarf, in order to recover the cooling lubricant used by the machine tool in the production process. The FC500 centrifuge is designed for continuous feeding and for the treatment of metal chips, not exceeding 2 cm in length. Under optimal conditions, the FC500 centrifuge allows to obtain swarf with a wet content that can reach up to 1.5%. The actual efficiency of the centrifuge, as well as the actual hourly flow rate, depends on the characteristics of the swarf, in particular the material, the shape, the weight per unit of volume, as well as the starting humidity and can be confirmed by testing your swarf at our premises. If there are pieces in the swarf, such as bar headers, semi-finished products or bar ends, the FC500 centrifuge should be equipped with a vibrating screen. The swarf must be short or not larger in size than 2 x 1 or 2 cm The swarf must not contain pieces (end of bar, bar headers, processed parts, ...). Pieces in the order of cm are tolerated The centrifuge must be loaded continuously and uniformly to ensure maximum performance A minimum washing flow rate must always be guaranteed, to avoid deposits and clogging Customised support structure made of sturdy painted metalwork with discharge hopper to be anchored to the floor Painting in RAL different from the standard Cutting fluid collection tank with level sensors and transfer pump (Hmax = 1 bar, Qmax = 240 l/min) Electrical control panel COOLANT RECOVERY SMALL SIZE Structure made of sturdy metalwork painted RAL 7016, anchored to a thick and rigid platform All parts in contact with the swarf are made of special wear-resistant materials Anti-vibration dampers to reduce vibrations Drain of recovered cooling lubricants Washing inlet valve Centrifuge washing pump Drain pipe of recovered cooling lubricant of standard length of 2 m Unbalancing sensor Junction box and wiring HIGH PERFORMANCE FAMA RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THE PRODUCT WITHOUT NOTICE Uffici e Produzione/Offices and production site: Via Moraro, 19 - 36030 Montecchio Precalcino (VI) Italy– Tel.+39 0445 363950 fax +39 0445 386068 Sede Legale/ Registered office: Via S.

METAL SWARF APPLICATION ANALYSIS EXAMPLE A wet residue of 2% was obtained on a 1000 kg sample of brass with a 15% wet content. 130 kg of oil were recovered in 1 hour. Assuming working 8 hours a day, for 220 days of the year, the following amount will be recovered: 228,800 kg of oil per year. NOTE: Resid ual swarf moisture after centrifugation can be confirmed by testing your swarf sample POWER SUPPLY Q = 1500 l/h BRASS STEEL ALUMINIUM STAINLESS COPPER CAST IRON The data in kg/h are approximate and in any case depend on the density of the swarf, the shape, the oil content and the type of coolant....
