3.1. Features & Benefits
When properly applied, high pressure coolant can considerably reduce cycle time, dramatically
improve tool life, and remove many of the requirements for operator intervention.
Cutting operations that suffer from chip evacuation problems can see improved speed,
accuracy, surface finish and reliability when using the R Series high pressure system.
In problem holes, high pressure can allow for higher speeds and higher feed rates, with little to
no pecking. This allows for 5-20% faster drilling.
Coolant fed reamers & boring tools, either through tool or close nozzle, can greatly improve
finish, tool life and accuracy.
In severe milling applications, the improvements will be easily recognized through the lack of
re-cutting of chips.
Heavy cuts can be made far more reliably with high pressure coolant. Tools that smoke or burn
will see tool life greatly improved. This allows for much ‘heavier’ cuts with tools that can be
pushed much harder, greatly improving cycle times.
Jobs already being run with ‘flood’ coolant will see dramatic increase in productivity with high
pressure coolant.
Often, time consuming programing methods such as rough/finish cuts, interrupted feed, non-
optimum tool and feed speeds can be eliminated with the use of high pressure coolant. High
pressure coolant gives the ability to break and/or control the chips that typically cause slow
speeds.
Rings of material left on drills and boring bars can be blown off with high pressure coolant.
Coolant through sub spindle can eliminate improper chucking and reduce parts being marked
by chips left in the collet.
