Machining Without Coolant

Machining Without Coolant

Heat buildup on dry machining operations reduces tool life & machining rates. The Cold Gun Aircoolant System produces a stream of clean, cold air at 50°F below supply air temperature. It will remove heat to prolong tool life & increase productivity. https://exair.co/184_599a
