Rego-Fix’s reCool RCR/ERM, part of its line of reCool retrofittable coolant-through systems, was developed specifically for Swiss-type machines. The system not only provides all the benefits of reCool technology to Swiss-type machines but also enables the use of emulsion or pure oil coolants.
It offers fast and easy retrofitting — from external cooling to internal cooling. Like its companion system, it is said the reCool RCR/ERM cost-effectively converts existing flood-cooled driven tools with ERM mini threads to through-tool-coolant capable in as little as two minutes. The system gets coolant to the cutting edge much more effectively than spray piping or nozzles, and thus easily removes heat from the cutting zone and contributes to better surface finishes, longer tool life, improved chip control and increased productivity.
The reCool RCR/ERM accommodates standard speeds up to 12,000 rpm and coolant pressures up to 1,450 psi/100 bar (2,150 psi/150 bar optional).
