The statistical results in recent years show that the overall output of domestic chain plate chip removal devices has been increasing for many consecutive years, and the failure rate has also been rising year after year. The problem of running stability has not been solved, especially for numerical control lathe equipment. Since the long coil chips generated after rough machining of numerical control machine tools are significantly more than the chip quantity generated by other machine tools, chip jamming and blocking problems are prone to occur.
