As of this morning, I am getting coolant coming out of the spindle without using the TSC. Machine is a MIghty Viper 950.I noticed it when the program I am running did a few tool changes. Coolant blew out of the spindle between tools like it does after the TSC has been used. What I have noticed also is that if I turn the flood coolant on, sometimes I get a 1-2 second stream of coolant out of the spindle as well. I pulled the Z-axis cover, turned the spindle and the TSC on together, and there is a small leak spraying coolant out over the castings. Not much, but enough for concern. However I don't know where the leak is. There is nothing coming out of the rotary union (which is about 5 months old). Are there seals somewhere in the spindle that may be going bad?
Thanks!
Thanks!
