Reduce coolant costs with air tool chiller

ChillyBits, a new air chiller from Abanaki Corporation, is suitable for use in a range of industrial, fabrication, assembly and packaging processes. Designed to reduce the safety concerns associated with mist cooling, the air chiller can increase machining speeds by as much as 36 percent while extending tooling life by percent.

Compressed air is used for industrial spot cooling. According to the company, this eliminates mist coolants and heat-related parts growth. The product can also be used in milling, drilling, machining, grinding and sharpening operations. The portable model contains no moving parts and has an adjustable tip for precision airflow.
