A new solution to an old problem - heat build up on dry manufacturing operations reduces tool life and hence machining rates. Shiballoy- exair`s cold gun air coolant system produces a stream of very cold [up to -l2°c] air to reduce heat build up in manufacturing operations. This improves productivity and throughput by cooling processes where it is not possible for use of coolants, refrigerants, oils or other fluids. The cold gun incorporates a stainless steel vortex tube that converts an ordinary supply of compressed air into two low-pressure streams, one hot and one cold. The improved cold air gun now features an improved muffler on the hot air exhaust to reduce noise below 72-dba levels. A flexible ball and socket hose that holds its position is used to direct the cold air to the point of use. A magnetic base provides easy mounting and portability. There are no moving parts to wear out in the unit.
