Vortec Cold Air Guns- Incredible Spot Cooling for Machining Operations
Cold Air Guns use filtered compressed air (80-100 PSIG) and vortex tube technology to
produce sub-zero air for industrial spot cooling. Cold air machining eliminates mist
coolants and heat-related parts growth while improving tool life, parts tolerance and
surface finish quality.
Cold Air Gun Applications:
Cold Air Guns are used in various industrial processes, fabrication, assembly and
packaging as a versatile spot cooling device. Most popular applications involve
cooling during the machining of metals, plastics, wood, rubber, ceramics and other
materials. Cold Air Guns provide effective cooling for most dry machining
operations, allowing increases in feed rates and extending tool life. With no
moving parts to wear out, the internal vortex tube converts factory compressed
air into a sub-zero air stream, producing temperatures down to as much as
-30°F.
Widely used in milling, drilling turning and other
metalworking operations
Machining of plastics, composites, wood and other materials
Surface grinding, drill and tool sharpening
CNC routers, blades and bands saws
Spot cooling or parts molds and assemblies
Industrial sewing and textiles
Setting hot melts and adhesives
Industrial Spot Cooling Cold Air Gun Models include:
- Adjustable Cold Air Gun - Our most popular and versatile model.
- Mini Cold Air Gun- Its compact size allows close positioning on grinding operations.
- Thread Guard® - Keeps sewing needles cool to reduce breakage and thread burning.
- Hot Air Gun - Spot pre-heating (up to 200°+ F) of parts and processes, using no electricity.
