EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Improved Cooling, Lubrication and Chip Evacuation in Titanium Parts with the ADVANTiGE High Pressure, High Flow Coolant System
The ADVANTiGE high pressure, high flow coolant system delivers large volumes of high pressure coolant directly to the cutting zone for increased chip evacuation from multi-flute tools. The coolant system includes overhead shower, spindle nozzle, and through-spindle coolant for improved cooling, lubrication and chip evacuation in titanium parts.
This presentation demonstrates the effects of poor chip evacuation when cutting titanium. By delivering coolant at 53 gallons per minute and 1000 psi, the ADVANTiGE’s high pressure, high volume through spindle coolant provides excellent chip-evacuation capabilities even at metal removal rates of 24.4 cubic inches per minute. This reduction in chip re-cutting is critical for extending tool life in titanium machining applications.
