Hi all,
In the maintenance shop at the plant where I work, the machinist has a device mounted beside the milling machine that directs a blast of cold air onto the toolbit\workpiece. At the opposite end of this gadget, you can feel low pressure warm air coming out.
The label on the device is long gone, and he didn't know much about it, other than it works and is fantastically cleaner than using oil for cooling\lubing.
Does anyone here know anything about these devices? Like where a person could get one, how much they cost, what their limitations are, etc.?
There was no power source attached to it, so it doesn't use electricity. I couldn't see any kind of oil resevoir on it either.
I've just never heard of such a thing before, and it's got me curious as hell :=)
