ECOCUT-TECH ECP Series Swarf Briquetting Press is designed to process the swarf at its source and differentiated from its rivals with its minimized space requirement and low power consumption.

ECOCUT-TECH ECP2 Series Swarf Briquetting Press, thanks to its vertically aligned compression chamber and main ram, requires minimum floor space; even, it can be fitted directly at the swarf discharge of the machining center. The state-of-the-art hydraulic technology VSP (Variable Speed Pump), consumes the least energy among the presses with same compression ratings. The double ram operation and the vertical alignment design, decrease the cycle time to its minimum. These features of ECP2 Series (low floor space requirement, low energy consumption and low cycle time) decreases the operating cost per briquette to an unmatchable low level.

Briquetting the swarf, especially at its source, brings in many advantages. First of all the briquetted swarf has higher yield in foundries compared to loose swarf therefore has higher scrap value. Moreover, by briquetting the swarf, it is possible to reclaim and reuse most of the cutting fluid. This translate into compliance with the current environmental legislations and prevention of mixing the cutting fluids of different machines together, both of which are very high added values to machine shops. Besides, briquetted swarf can easily be transported and requires less storage space. Last but not least, under circumstances where different types of metals processed with the same machine, briquetting at the source makes possible to separate the swarf of different metals.

The paramount size advantage of ECP2, makes it possible to be used directly at the swarf discharge. In addition to the advantages listed above, this feature minimize swarf movements within the workshop and, by returning the reclaimed cutting fluid to the source machine, eliminate bacteria contamination.

ECOCUT-TECH ECP is fully automated and does not require full time operator supervision. The technical specifications like pump flow, cylinder diameter, hopper size, briquette size, and motor power are determined at the order stage depending on the requirements of application, and in order to suit to the changing requirements of daily operation, ECP offers parametrical control. The basic mechanical design of ECP has been tested under diverse conditions like aluminum, brass, cast iron and steel. With its minimal space requirement, low power consumption and limited operating cost, ECP brings high added value.
