Diebold’s JetSleeve system is designed to reduce cutter breakage due to chip interference, extending tool life. The system consists of a ThermoGrip chuck with a modified nose contour and an aluminum sleeve with a series of 16 calibrated holes around the tool opening to ensure a constant supply of coolant or air to the cutting tool. The small size of these holes forces the air or coolant to accelerate to a high velocity, ensuring that chips or fines created by the machining process are flushed out immediately. As a result, the cutter doesn't run over chips, making it useful for lights-out machining, the company says. A single O-ring connects the sleeve and the toolholder.
Chucks are available for cutting tools with shanks ranging from 3 to 20 mm, and in all HSK and steep-taper sizes. Special lengths and variants are available as well. The system can be used with MMS units, air-only units, emulsion units or conventional through-tool coolant supplies.
There are usually better solutions to chatter than just reducing the feed rate. Through vibration analysis, the chatter problem can be solved, enabling much higher metal removal rates, better quality and longer tool life.
