Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the FullShop™ Automated Coolant Management System by 168 Manufacturing, designed to enhance CNC machine operations by automating coolant replenishment, thus improving profitability and efficiency.
Specifications
The system includes a centralized pumping station, controller, distribution manifolds, and a sensor for machine tool sumps. It is available in two models: FS120 for up to 120 CNC machines and FS40 for up to 40 CNC machines. Both models support remote operation and teleservice, with a maximum tubing run length of up to 2,700 feet.
Features & Benefits
  • Engineered to pump from totes or barrels.
  • Operates passively in the background.
  • Suitable for both attended and unattended shops.
  • Per-machine concentration adjustments.
  • Integrated data reporting for profit optimization.
  • Compact footprint and clean installation with remote distribution nodes.
Profitability & Labor Efficiency
Automating coolant management can save up to four hours per week per machine, allowing skilled machinists to focus on more valuable tasks. This is particularly beneficial in a tight labor market and for unattended operations, reducing errors and increasing spindle uptime.
Technical Support & Zero Downtime
Precision Tool Technologies offers 24/7 support, robust design for rugged use, and built-in telesupport for minimal downtime. The system is designed for quick setup and a short learning curve.
Lights-Out CNC Machining
The system facilitates unattended or lights-out operations, allowing machine shops to run high-volume jobs overnight without manual coolant management, thus maximizing machine utilization.
Technical Details
  • Model FS120 services up to 120 CNC machines, while FS40 services up to 40 CNC machines.
  • Each distribution node can service up to 24 CNC machines for FS120 and 8 for FS40.
  • Concentration range: 0.5% to 20%.
  • Power requirement: 460 VAC.
  • Compatible with various water sources and the FullShop App.

COOLANT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS FOR CNCs-1

Simply More CNC Production Profitability Solutions COOLANT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS FOR CNCs If you’re still using buckets, barrels and hoses to manually get coolant into your CNC machines, there’s a better way. The FullShop™ Automated Coolant Management System monitors coolant usage at the machine tool sump and automatically replenishes the coolant before it runs low. These easy-to-install turnkey systems consist of a centralized pumping station, controller, distribution manifolds and a small sensor that drops into any machine tool sump. With its modular design, our FS120 model can automate shops with 15 to 120 CNC machines. You can also select our smaller FS40 model, which can automate shops with up to 40 CNC machines. FEATURES & BENEFITS • Engineered to pump from totes or barrels. • Passive—operates in the background. • Effective for shops that run attended and unattended. • Per-machine concentrations. • Data reporting integrated for profit optimization. • Small footprint—similar to the footprint of a tote. • Remote distribution nodes for clean installation.
