Precise Coolant Supply Improves Milling Tasks
October 1, 2015
The JetSleeve from BILZ is a shrink chuck with three compressed air holes and an aluminum sleeve. With the help of 16 holes at different angles on the front of the sleeve, the pressurized medium is forced at high speed and without separation to the working areas, where the chips are blown away as soon as they are formed.
"This means no more milling cutter breakage," said a company spokesperson. "The result is considerably improved tool life and less annual tool costs. The most tangible cost advantages, however, are achieved by significantly improved surface quality of the workpieces, because vibrations are reduced during the operation due to the hydraulic design of the JetSleeve holder. Rework, such as finishing, polishing and finish milling, is no longer necessary."
JetSleeve can be used for milling cutters from diameters of 3 mm up to 20 mm and for all taper sizes HSK and SK. Special solutions and lengths are available. JetSleeve can also be used on all machines with internal coolant flow. "Process security is guaranteed due to the automatic operation, since there is no chip accumulation and programming is not interrupted," said the spokesperson.
According to the spokesperson, JetSleeve features reductions in raw material consumption, air pressure, power and oil pollution.
