Hydraulic Ingot Chipping for Downstream Processing
Tianyuan Machinery's metal ingot chipping machine converts suitable metal ingots into chips through controlled hydraulic feeding and a rotating cutter roll. It prepares material for screening, collection, briquetting or subsequent milling. Cutter, feed and automation options are selected to match your material and process.
Product OverviewEquipment application and scope
The machine consists of a chipping unit, cutter roll, drive motor, hydraulic feed system and electrical control cabinet. Material is positioned and advanced toward the cutter roll at a controlled rate. The resulting metal chips can be discharged for screening, conveying, recovery, briquetting or further milling.
This machine produces chips, not finished metal powder. Final powder specifications depend on downstream equipment and process conditions. Material suitability and the required configuration should be confirmed before ordering.
Core FeaturesEquipment characteristics
- Controlled hydraulic feedingAdjustable feed settings support steady, repeatable cutting for the agreed material and operating conditions.
- Material-matched cutting configurationThe cutter roll, blades and feed settings are selected to match the material and target chip form.
- Optional PLC and touch-screen controlPLC control and touch-screen operation can be specified to suit the project's automation requirements.
- Downstream process integrationThe configuration can accommodate screening, conveying, chip recovery and further processing equipment.

Working Principle & ComponentsProcess and construction
A hydraulic feed system advances the secured ingot toward a rotating cutter roll. The cutting action converts the material into chips for collection or further processing. The machine does not directly produce finished metal powder.
Working Principle
- 1
Load and position
Load the approved ingot and align it with the feed guides.
- 2
Clamp and set feed
Secure the material and set the hydraulic feed for the agreed cutting conditions.
- 3
Cut into chips
Start the cutter roll and feed steadily to produce metal chips.
- 4
Discharge and collect
Discharge the chips for collection or transfer to the next process.
- 5
Optional downstream processing
Screen, recover, briquette or mill the chips using separately configured equipment as required.
