The new Through-Spindle Coolant (TSC) Kit and Mist Collector are designed to take CNC machining to the next level by offering enhanced air quality, superior efficiency and improved machine performance. “The introduction of these new accessories for our 1500MX is a milestone we’ve all been eagerly working towards,” says Tom Zelickman, Product Manager for Tormach. “These innovations were developed in direct response to customer feedback, so we’re confident they’ll significantly enhance both the longevity of cutting tools and air quality in the shop.” The TSC Kit improves machining operations by delivering coolant directly through the 1500MX’s spindle to enhance tool life and performance during deep drilling and milling. By keeping tools clear of chips and other debris, this method helps maintain a clean bore and reduces chip buildup to significantly enhance machining precision and efficiency. “The Through-Spindle Coolant Kit will allow our customers to produce higher-quality parts at a faster rate than ever before,” explained Zelickman. “By ensuring that coolant reaches the cutting tools exactly where it’s needed, the kit not only extends the life of the tools but also enhances the consistency and accuracy of every cut. This is an invaluable addition for machine shops looking to push their production capabilities to new heights and achieve superior machining results.” The user-installable system integrates seamlessly with customers’ existing 1500MX mills and comes with all the necessary components to easily add this capability to their machines. Powered by a 3hp, 220V single-phase motor, the TSC Kit delivers a maximum outlet pressure of 435psi (30BAR) and a flow rate of 7.9GPM (20L/Min) for optimal coolant distribution. And while every 1500MX comes with a TSC standard, a Flood Coolant Kit (PN 51567) is required to operate the TSC Kit. The Tormach Mist Collector is engineered to maintain a cleaner workspace by capturing and filtering out vaporized coolant and airborne particles before they become a problem. It features a centrifugal fan that provides exceptional attraction and centrifugal force to effectively collect mist and vaporized liquids. The system’s two-stage filtration design maximizes its ability to filter oil and mist particles, while a stainless-steel bottom strainer recycles oil and lubricant back into the system to enhance efficiency and reduce waste. “Any time you&#39;re moving coolant, there’s going to be a significant amount of vapor released into the air that can decrease air quality and pose potential health risks for operators,” said Zelickman. “We’re launching the Mist Collector alongside the Through-Spindle Coolant Kit because the dual approach not only keeps the shop environment cleaner and safer for the operators but also helps maintain the longevity of the machinery itself.” Additional features of the Mist Collector include: Pressure Gauge: Monitors internal filter status to ensure optimal performance. Quiet Operation: The high-performance motor operates at just 65 dB, offering low noise, minimal vibration and a long operational lifetime. User-Friendly Design: Features a simple push-button switch for manual control and easy, toolless filter access and removal. The stainless-steel filters are also washable for easy maintenance. With specifications that include a 1/2 HP motor, 420 cfm airflow and compact dimensions (395mm x 400mm x 650mm), the Tormach Mist Collector requires 220V at 2.5A with a recommended 10A breaker and is an essential addition to any machining operation.</span></p>
