reCool® for lathes

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides a comprehensive description of the reCool® system by REGO-FIX, designed for retrofitting lathes to enable internal and peripheral cooling using oil and emulsion. It emphasizes the system's role in enhancing productivity and efficiency in machining processes.
Key Features of Cooling Systems:
  • Peripheral Cooling: Utilizes a coolant flush disk KS/ER to direct coolant along the tool's side to the cutting edge, suitable for moderate cavities.
  • Internal Cooling: Uses a sealing disk DS/ER for precise cooling at the cutting edge, improving chip removal and lubrication, ideal for deep cavities.
  • External Flood Cooling: Offers universal application but may face challenges with deep cavities and suboptimal chip deflection.
reCool® System Components:
  • reCool® Static RCS: Converts static tooling systems to through coolant in two minutes, supports coolant pressures up to 150 bar, and is low-maintenance.
  • reCool® Rotary RCR: Converts driven tooling systems to through coolant, supports speeds up to 12,000 rpm, and coolant pressures up to 150 bar.
Benefits of reCool®:
  • Increases tool life and reduces cycle time by optimizing coolant supply.
  • Enhances chip removal and minimizes coolant scattering.
  • Significantly boosts productivity, as evidenced by customer case studies showing increased parts per day and reduced working time per piece.
Customer Testimonials: Customers in the automotive and power-electronics industries report substantial productivity gains and cost savings after retrofitting with reCool®.
Technical Specifications: The document includes detailed specifications for various reCool® components, including dimensions, part numbers, and compatible accessories for both static and rotary applications.
Conclusion: reCool® offers a cost-effective solution for enhancing machining efficiency and productivity, making it a valuable addition for manufacturers seeking to improve their cooling systems.
DS/ER Sets: The document lists different DS/ER sets, including DS/ER 16, 20, 25, 32, and 40, each with specific bore diameters and part numbers. Each set includes marked disks and a matching disk tray DSR.
reCool® Accessories: The document details high-pressure hoses, standard hose sets, fitting sets, ball adapters, and aluminum ring adapters. These accessories are compatible with reCool® RCS and RCR systems for internal cooling.
Adapters and Tools: Information on reCool® adapters, assembly tools for sealing discs, and various wrench types (E AX, E MX) is provided, including part numbers and dimensions.
Technical Information: The document outlines the reCool® system's operational parameters, including maximum rotation speed, coolant pressure requirements, and recommended tightening torque for different ER sizes. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining adequate coolant pressure to prevent damage.
Company Information: REGO-FIX AG, based in Switzerland, is the manufacturer of these products. The document includes contact information for their subsidiaries in the USA and China, and highlights their ISO certifications for quality and environmental management.

reCool® for lathes-19

internal thread Colletholders and driven tools with internal thread are specially designed for smaller lathes and Swiss automatics that have limited space and many mounted tools. Thanks to their shortness they possess a superior stiffness and do not protrude heavily from the tooling revolver. This shortest possible projection increases the axis of travel of the machine and allows larger workpieces to be machined. reCool® adapter The reCool® adapter RC-ADP easily converts inner-threaded driven tools to outer-threaded version. This enables the use of the reCool® rotary coolant supply system RCR...
