Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for separating solids, such as metal cuttings, from liquids, such as machine coolant, is disclosed. The apparatus has an upwardly inclined elongated housing which in cross-section is U-shaped with a semi- circular bottom and parallel sides. The housing is open at the top and covered throughout its length by a removable lid. A helix is rotatable in the housing and extends from the lower end to the upper end. The housing has a solids discharge chute near the upper end. A gear motor is mounted on the upper end of the housing for rotation of the helix. There is an upwardly extending fluid inlet chamber at the lower end of the housing, the open top serving as an inlet by which solids containing liquid is conducted into the apparatus. An upwardly extending overflow chamber is connected with the lower portion of the housing, the wails of the overflow chamber being of less height than the inlet chamber The inlet chamber, the overflow chamber and the lower portion of the housing together form a quiescent zone in which solid particles can settle into the lower portion of the housing where they are picked up by the rotating helix and carried upwardly to the discharge chute. The liquid flowing out of the overflow chamber is collected for recirculation. To augment the separation of paramagnetic particles, permanent magnets may be secured to the bottom of the lower portion of the housing.
