OriGlam Mist Coolant Lubrication Spray System for Metal Cutting Engraving Cooling Sprayer Machine for Air Pipe CNC Lathe Milling Drill

Wow. Not sure why I didn't get this years ago. Cheap mist coolant atomizer that works pretty well, as far as I can tell. Idk how well it needs to work, but it does pretty well.

This product works as described (mist/spray using an air compressor), so 5 stars. Also great value. However, I want to cut aluminum on my CNC and prefer to apply a stream of liquid rather than a mist/spray, so that it shoots a sufficient volume and pressure of liquid to clear the chips in addition to providing cooling. So, I kept the housing of this OriGlam product, and swapped out the hose with this product: Loc-Line 40413 Coolant Hose Assembly Kit, Acetal Copolymer, 7 Piece, 1/4" Coolant Hose ID https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006R9O3HE?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 Instead of an air compressor, I'm now using a $10 aquarium pump (up to 80 GPH gallons per hour), to pump water directly into the housing, which squirts a nice solid jet of water. The reason I kept the housing of this OriGlamp product is that it has nice mounting holes, which I will eventually use to mount onto my CNC machine's Z axis so the jet stream can follow along wherever the spindle goes. (In the video, I merely depict squirting the water at an aluminum rod from a fixed mounting point). Keep in mind the jet stream of liquid is messier than the mist/spray, although both can be messy... so I'm working on ways to collect the liquid so it doesn't splatter all over the CNC bed and possibly reach electronics.

Saw this type unit recommended by many using both ~20psi and ~3psi air, with and without misting. I wanted to use 3psi with misting, so I followed the example of others and drilled out the end port, while keeping the inner suction port, but I also drilled out the three smaller holes in it to hopefully improve draw at the lower psi. This did improve the flow, but the air flow was too low for any real cooling at 3psi. I removed the air inlet fitting and found it very restrictive, so I replaced it with a non-restrictive push-on fitting (see image 2). That greatly improved the airflow, however, there was still as much dribble as mist, so I routed the air pressure to the lubrication canister, and arrived at a very usable Mist Cooler with more mist than dribble. Yes, I did a lot of mods to the original mister, but I can now use a fairly quiet air pump, and would buy this again if I needed to, as it served as a very good starting mechanism.

I bought this to use as a portable coolant dispensor i could swap between the lathe, mill, and drill press in my little garage shop. This thing is really impressive. Getting all the hose fitting to conect to my little pancake compressor took a trip to the hardware store. I mounted it to a magnetic base i had laying around, so i can attach/deattach it and move it around the shop farile easily. It has 2 holes for mounting on the front corners, which isnt the best (takes long thin screws which meant i needed a wonky bracket to attach the magnet), but is workable POINT IS this thing absolutely revolutionized making parts in my little shop. Get a good coolant and watch stainless turn to butter. It is rather incredibly efficient. Ive been using it for a couple hours a day for several weeks and ive just gone through my first gallon. I mostly work in foodsafe plastics and stainless, this has eliminated nearly every issue i had with tools overheating or cutting badly. WIsh i had bought it sooner

This is very nice, especially for the price! Extremely adjustable for both fluid and air flow. Work well at just 5psi. I tend to run it around 20 psi with great results. A few notes: * The description says 8mm air hose, but standard 5/16 O.D. Hose from the big box stores also fits perfect and is cheaper than 8mm hose online. * Non magnetic, but there are two mounting holes drilled through for attachment. You will need to fabricate a holder. * If you mount your reservoir above the nozzle you will have a siphon situation and your fluid will keep draining. * Make sure you tighten the lock nuts on the adjustment screws fairly tight our they will vibrate loose. The adjustment screws themselves will then vibrate open or closed as well.

I cut and drill 1" X 1" stainless steel bar and have been using Tap Magic EP-EXTRA as a coolant (another great product, by the way!). I used a 12 volt pump I had to create a flood system for my band saw, but it would have been too much for my drill press. After reading all of the positive, helpful reviews this sounded like the right thing. I had an air regulator and gauge from an old compressor and hooked it up in line with this unit and it works great. It allows me not only fine tune the amount of pressure going in, but I can cut off the air flow easily, also. It comes with the syphon hose for the fluid, but not the air hose. You can get the 5/16" tubing at Lowes, but their compression fittings for that size are limited. Because of this, to connect to my regulator I had to start with 1/4" tubing and transition up to 5/16". You can probably find the correct fittings on line, but I kind of like the challenge of figuring out a solution with what you are given. How does it work? Great! Because of the misting, it's hard to gauge exactly how much coolant is actually going down the hole. so periodically i will back off the press and let it lubricate the tip of the bit. The nozzle was getting smacked by the strands coming out of the hole, so I reinforced it as you can see. No magnet? No problem... for me, anyway. Mine will stay in place indefinitely. Excellent product that I highly recommend.

This 20.00 mister works better and is more reliable than the 700.00 misting units that came on our 3 CNC machines. The only problem I’ve had is that the thumb screws for the air and coolant don’t have a stop to keep them from unscrewing but it’s not a big problem.

Worked well initially but later coolant control screw failed. The screw cap fell off too.

I previously bought the cheaper one control mist coolers and struggled to get the coolant flow and air feed running properly. My mate bought one of these by mistake and asked me to help him set it up on his myford lathe. This model is so staggeringly better than the others around that I immediately ordered two for myself. Slightly dearer than some but night and day improvement. The cheaper ones only have one control screw that just doesn't work, in fact I had to pipe in a seperate tap to control the air properly, and they were still a fudge. These OriGlam ones have two controls, air and fluid, plus a non return valve in the fluid line that takes all the 'bounce' out of the line so the syphon effect works reliably. The air pressure needed is greatly reduced compared to the 'one control' types as well. I tapped one of the mounting holes with a 4mm thread and mounted 'silverline magnets' also available on Amazon. Now I can just clip them to any machine I am working at. Fantastic. Easy to plumb in with 8mm blue plastic pipe. Just push the pipe into the self sealing fittings. A slight push on the blue collars and the pipes can be easily removed to make packing away a doodle.

fonctionne comme desiré

Für den Preis perfekt. Funktioniert super. Stellschrauben können gesichert werden und der Einstellbereich langt für mein Vorhaben aus. Nutze das Ding für eine mini CNC für Alu arbeiten mit Isopropanol.

Regolazioni aria/liquido molto fini che mi consentono di fare un getto nebulizzato molto fine senza fare pozzanghere di acqua durante le lavorazioni dell'alluminio sulla mi CNC6040, molto soddisfatto del prodotto anche la realizzazione è molto robusta e solida

It's kinda fiddly to get it to spray fluid. When it finally managed to produce droplets, the air flow was minimal. I need good air flow + fluid. But now I only use it for air.
