Why Is Compressed Air Better for Cooling CNC Machines?
Computer numerical control (CNC) machines can break down when their parts overheat or become contaminated. Keeping CNC components cool and free of dirt and moisture will prolong the life of your machines. Compressed air cooling systems are a safe, reliable, and inexpensive way to keep CNC machines running smoothly.
Arizona Vortex has been manufacturing compressed air technology for over 30 years. Our compressed air cooling products have a wide variety of industrial applications. If you use air conditioning to cool your CNC machines, read on to find out why you should switch to a compressed air cooling system.
Cooling with Compressed Air Is Simple
Compressed air cooling systems use vortex tubes to create two streams of air—one hot and one cold. The temperature and air flow of each stream is completely controllable, so you can make adjustments as needed. And, because there are no moving parts in a compressed air cooling system, they eliminate any need for maintenance.
Compressed Air Cooling Systems Are Affordable
Using air conditioning systems to cool CNC machines requires messy refrigerants that are expensive and dangerous. Compressed air cooling technology is clean, easy to use, and does not require any refrigerant. Eliminating the need for maintenance and refrigerants will save you valuable time and money.
Vortex Systems Offer a Safe and Reliable Cooling Solution
Working with dangerous chemicals like freon can put you at risk of refrigerant poisoning. Cooling your CNC machines with compressed air removes that risk completely. It also greatly reduces the risk of injury, because vortex systems have no moving parts.
You also eliminate the risk of unreliable technology when you switch to compressed air cooling. Other manufacturers use aluminum in their products, which is not as durable as stainless steel. At Arizona Vortex, we manufacture our products out of stainless steel so that you can count on them to last.
Compressed Air Is Conveniently Quiet and Versatile
Other CNC machine cooling systems have various moving parts and they often get noisy. Compressed air is very quiet and its simplicity makes the technology a great solution to a variety of industrial problems. Unlike air conditioners, vortex systems have no complicated mechanics and they don’t require maintenance and repair.
It Is Better for the Environment
Cooling your CNC machines with a compressed air system will also make your business greener. A green workshop typically means safer work conditions. Compressed air products only use the air we breathe and they do not require any nasty chemicals or pollute the environment.
