Programmable Flood Coolant Nozzle System For Machining Centers

The SpiderCool system is a programmable coolant nozzle that automatically aims a higher volume coolant stream at the cutting edge of every tool, regardless of length, loaded into the spindle of any vertical or horizontal machining center by the tool changer. We refer to the system as "programmable," but "teachable" is a more descriptive term because the nozzle positions are actually set and memorized by using the servo adjustment knob (below) conveniently located on the machine's control panel.  "G Codes" or "M Codes" are not used.

How do you program SpiderCool?

The machinist simply “teaches” SpiderCool by turning the adjustment knob to precisely aim the coolant stream. This is done once for each tool in the machine. From that point on, coolant adjustment is automatic. There are no M-Codes to write into your program, and adjustments can be made and re-memorized at any time during the machining cycle.
