A specialized service for the chips from your machining processes: we remove moisture and lubricants to improve material quality and commercial value.
01
Chips from lathes, mills and machining centers come soaked in cutting oil and coolant. That liquid adds weight that isn't metal, makes handling harder, can leak in transit and lowers the price paid for the material.
Our thermal drying process efficiently removes moisture and lubricants from iron and aluminum chips, significantly improving recycled material quality and optimizing its commercial value.
02
Dry chips take up less volume, are safer to handle and reach the foundry in better condition. For your plant that means fewer leaks in storage areas and more revenue per ton.
What's included
01
Removes coolants and cutting lubricants.
02
You ship and get paid for metal, not liquid.
03
