The present invention is a chip conveyor (1) with which an amount of cutting fluid discharged is reduced by a simple configuration. The chip conveyor (1) has a reservoir tank (3) in which chips and cutting fluid are stored; an endless conveyor body (10) in which both front/rear-direction ends of a large number of hinge plates (15) are coupled together by hinges (16), and which is moved circumferentially through a climbing portion from inside the reservoir tank (3) by a drive mechanism; and a control device (9) for controlling the driving of the drive mechanism. A plurality of scraping plates (18) formed in a state of standing erect relative to the hinge plates (15) are disposed at intervals in the direction of forward travel in the conveyor body (10). The scraping plates (18) are formed along the width direction of the conveyor body (10) and, within the width intervals thereof, have one or more passing sections (20) through which the cutting fluid passes. |
