We are cleaning up our planer mill and there is no shortage of chips / swarf that has worked its way into the gears on the table drive. Not a ton, but more than I like to see. Also, the area between the ways had a fair amount of chips as well. The unit has a CNC control and we do a lot of milling / machining on it and we are using it more often.
We have the auto retracting window blind kind of covers fastened to the ends of the table. Can these be made more "chip ingress proof"?
I'd like to keep this area cleaner without having to take the covers off once a month to brush / vacuum out.
What are some ways to keep this area as chip free as possible?
