MACHINE WAY WIPERS

CQM offers machine way wipers for a variety of applications, including CNC machining applications. Our custom molded way wipers are manufactured according to the latest machine-building standards. Depending on the material selected, they make allowance for criteria such as dry running, resistance to microorganisms, hydrolysis, mineral oil, coolants, acids, bleaches, and gasoline as well as operating temperatures up to 200°C.

​CQM's team has more than 30 years of experience in the field of machine way wipers, marked by continual innovation and perfection. This applies equally to stock way cover wipers, wipers for steel telescopic covers and formed way wipers made to customer's specifications.

Types of Way Wipers

Since there are so many different types of wipers, we would like to point out the difference between them so that you will find it easier to select the right product for your application: 

• FB Wipers- FB wipers are primarily used on the guideways of machines and simply called way wipers or Wipers for short. Our FB Wipers are provided with a transparent coating as a protection against chips and corrosion, except series “M” (stainless steel) and “AW” (Aluminium Wipers). 

• TA Wipers: TA Wipers are mostly used on telescopic steel covers. They keep cover boxes clean and prevent dirt and chips from entering. The wipers are spot-welded, riveted or screwed to the cover boxes. In confined spaces, some may also be used (vertically) as way wipers. TA wipers are manufactured in special moulds, ensuring 100% repeat-order accuracy. All of our TA Wipers here at CQM, Inc. are made with a steel insert are corrosion-protected.

• Moulded wipers: These are manufactured in special moulds and can be made in almost any geometric shape. ​CQM can make wipers with any configuration that is technically possible. The precision of the mould is a criterion of the wiper´s accuracy and guarantees optimum wiping results. Since CQM wipers are manufactured in moulds, 100 % accuracy is guaranteed for repeat orders. All moulded wipers are provided with a transparent coating as a protection against chips and corrosion. We would be pleased to submit our quotation, for which we only need your sketch or drawing and details about the quantities required. ​

• Customized wipers: Our customized wipers are made to length, welded, pegged, or drilled to customer's specifications.​ 

Contact CQM, Inc. if you have questions about our way wiper selection or to order.
