Hexacool produces chilled water systems for spindle oil applications. Grinding machine cooling, hydraulic oil chillers, process chillers for cooling cutting fluid. Water based emulsion cooling, neat cut oil chillers, and rolling and welding machines are among some of the other equipment that uses Hexacool spindle oil chillers.
A spindle has many different uses and is applicable for many different industries. For instance, a spindle in the automobile industry can hold parts of a car together. In the textile industry, a spindle is used to spin fibers into thread. In the manufacturing industry a spindle is a rotating axis of a machine that uses a shaft as its heart. While all of these serve a purpose and are important Whaley Products has a reputation in the manufacturing industry. When a machines’ spindle speed is over 12,000 rpm, a spindle cooler must be used to cool the oil on the machine. Some of these machines can be found in mass production of manufacturing. These machines are controlled by CNC (Computer Numerical Control) devices, which help create a multitude of products at high speed.
Spindles are important components of most industrial or small-scale machinery and are extremely sensitive to heat. As the machine at hand is in use, the temperature of the spindles rises, causing the machinery to malfunction. In order to avoid this possibility, it is important to maintain the temperature of the spindles within specified limits, ensuring the machine tool’s smooth operation. Our Spindle Chiller helps achieve these temperatures by re-circulating machine-compatible coolant through a cooling circuit within the cooler. They use the eco-friendly refrigerant R134a and contain inbuilt coolant tanks and re-circulating pumps. These chiller controllers are compact, mobile and based on microprocessors for their functionality.
