When the Coolant Flow Rate Is Insufficient <DWX-43W>
If the coolant flow rate from the coolant nozzles is not correct, it may affect an effect on the milling results.
When performing "Check coolant flow", if the coolant hits the middle part of the dummy pin as shown in the figure below, then the coolant flow rate is correct.
To check the coolant flow rate, please refer to the following page:
"Checking the Coolant Flow Rate" - User's Manual
If the coolant flow rate is inadequate, please perform the following actions:
- Check the amount of coolant.
- Clean the coolant nozzles.
- Clean the coolant tank.
1. Check the amount of coolant.
If the fluid level in the coolant tank is below “MIN,” there is insufficient coolant. Fill the tank with coolant so that the fluid level is between “MAX” and “MIN”.
As a guide, the fluid level will be at “MAX” when the amount of coolant in the tank is 5 L and at “MIN” when the amount is 3 L.
To fill the tank with coolant, please refer to the following page:
"Filling the Coolant Tank" - User's Manual
2. Clean the coolant nozzles.
The coolant nozzles may become clogged due to the adhesion of components from the workpiece.
Clean the coolant nozzles using the supplied nozzle cleaner.
Nozzle cleaner
To clean the coolant nozzles, please refer to the following page:

3. Clean the coolant tank.
The coolant flow rate may be reduced due to clogging of the basket filter or tank filter inside the tank with milling waste.
Clean the basket filter, tank filter, and inside of the tank to remove milling waste.
To clean the coolant tank, please refer to the following page:
