Here's a link to our Pro Pallet System as seen in this video 👉 piersonworkholding.com/pro-pallet-system/

If you think about it, it's weird that most machines that work with coolant don't have air knife option at all. It's such a useful thing to have.

[@PiersonWorkholding]

That's a good point!

Thanks for the video Jay!

[@TrPrecisionMachining]

good video Mr pierson..thanks for your time

Why not just load up a chip fan in the tool carousel and run a macro program. Alot easier no?

[@LoneWolfPrecisionLLC]

They talk about it In another video but the gist is it takes another tool In the carousel and the air knife was more effective.

The loss of another precious tool slot is a big part of why I do not have a chip fan in my two VMCs.

[@Lewisdowning_]

I agree that the loss of a tool slot isn't ideal. Playing devil's advocate to this, however, what's the probability of your VMC/HMC utilising 100% carousel tool space capacity for any given job? Unless your leaving unused tools in the carousel, which in this case is no different to a chip fan. 🤔 🙂 the only variable that skews this theory is a low tool holding capacity?

[@dumpsterdave3710]

@@Lewisdowning_ My main VMC has two slots that I swap regularly, the other 22 are a pretty standardized toolset that isn't worth jerking around to make space for a chip fan that wouldn't add a benefit equivalent to the loss of a slot. The external air knife is almost like adding an extra tool pocket, which is pretty cool.

[@PiersonWorkholding]

Originally, we thought freeing up a tool slot was the main benefit, but an air knife is easily 10x more powerful and thorough than a chip fan.
