Why Use High Pressure Coolant Systems?
High Pressure Machine Tool Pumps provide significant advantages over conventional flood coolant systems. Most conventional machine tools simply spray oil / water at the work area. Often, the coolant doesn't actually reach the working edge of the tool, causing it to overheat.
High Pressure Coolant Systems:
- Deliver the coolant directly through the cutting, drilling, or milling tool; constantly bathing the cutting edge of the tool and work surface of the stock with generous amounts of coolant.
- Deliver a greater quantity of coolant, faster, than conventional spray systems, keeping the tool much cooler. Plus, the increased coolant volume flushes chips quickly out of the work area, prevents "chip re-cutting", controls chip breakage, and prolongs tool life.
Taken together, the advantages of HP Coolant Systems can increase the productivity of cutting tools by 65-70%. Here's how:
1. Faster Speeds / Quicker Feeds: When the machine tool is properly cooled, you may increase spindle speed with no loss of tolerance or tool fatigue. You may also feed stock to the tool faster, improving throughput. Using HP Coolant Systems, you can decrease cycle time anywhere from 25-75 percent, dramatically improving productivity.
2. Longer Tool Life, Longer Machine Life: Properly cooled cutting, grinding, drilling, and milling tools maintain their sharpness longer, and are less prone to metal fatigue, dramatically improving tool life and reducing the number of tool changes. HP Coolant Systems also allow spindle motors to work against less friction, prolonging machine life.
3. Deeper Drilling, Smoother Surface Finishes: HP Coolant Systems and pumps allow for deeper drilling and cleaner surface finishes by flushing cut chips away from the working edge of the tool. Much faster drilling and boring operations results.
4. Superior Chip Management: Slower spindle speeds create larger chips, and recutting any chip causes machine tools to wear out. With High Pressure Coolant Systems, you may use faster spindle speeds, generate smaller chips, and flush them away from the cutting edge faster and more efficiently.
Now that you've seen the tremendous cost savings and benefits of using High Pressure Cooling Systems (oil or water) find out why MP System High Pressure Coolant Systems are right for your machine shop!
