The document introduces a servo-driven programmable coolant nozzle system called SpiderCool that aims coolant jets precisely at the cutting edge of tools. It claims SpiderCool will increase productivity, improve tool life, reduce tool breakage, improve part quality, provide a cleaner safer work environment, and allow for unattended machining. Some key benefits listed are increased tool life through improved coolant coverage, reduced time spent adjusting coolant lines and changing tools, improved chip evacuation to reduce tool breakage and improve finishes, and ability to increase feeds and speeds to reduce cycle times. It notes the typical return on investment is just 3 months.
1. Improve Your Productivity!
Introducing
is a Servo driven Programmable Coolant
Nozzle System for Horizontal and Vertical CNC machining
centres that automatically and precisely aims high
performance jets at the cutting edge of every tool, regardless
of length. It will increase your productivity, increase tool life
and reduce tool breakage with vastly improved chip
evacuation; it will also improve part quality and provide a
cleaner safer working environment for your operators.

BENEFITS
Tool life
Coolant is precisely aimed at the tool cutting edge where destructive heat is
generated. Eliminating multiple “Loc-lines” increases coolant velocity and
provides more coolant to the cutting edge, giving a substantial increase on
tool life. Less down time for tooling changeover means more time for cutting.
Productivity
Time wasted adjusting coolant lines are eliminated. SpiderCool can be
programmed during setup or whilst cutting and only needs setting once for
each tool. Because tool life is increased, time spent changing worn tooling
and re-setting tool offsets is significantly decreased.
Chip evacuation
SpiderCool targets an increased coolant flow at the tool tip; this vastly
increases the level of chip evacuation, keeping the job clear from a build up
of tool and Component damaging debris and has proven to dramatically
reduce Tool breakage and improve part finish.
Cycle Time
With optimal cooling and efficient chip evacuation machine feeds and speeds
can be increased reducing part cycle times.
Unattended Machining
By eliminating manual coolant adjustments, machining centres can run
without intervention for extended periods of time, which greatly improves
cycle efficiency and yields more profit per machine hour.
Safety
Operators no longer need to reach or climb into the machine to manually
adjust the coolant lines, exposing them to the risk of physical injury or skin
complaints.
AutoDrill Cycle
AutoDrill allows you to set upper and lower coolant positions for any
individual tool. The coolant stream will continuously sweep between the pre-
set positions, providing excellent coolant coverage over the full cutting length
rather than a single point.

Return on Investment
With a typical average return on your investment of just 3 months
SpiderCool is an improvement to your new and existing machine tools that
you simply cannot afford to overlook.
