Hi, Wondering whats involved with adding through spindle coolant on a Fadal 4020. Wheres the best place to buy the parts?
I've heard there can be issues with through coolant leaking into spindle bearings. Can anybody provide more details on how this happens and how big a deal it is? I checked into TSC years ago and gave up on it after learning it can cause bearing problems. Ironically last week I damaged my spindle bearings from not having TSC. Was pecking drilling a deep 21mm hole in steel and occasionally chips would fall back in the hole caused the drill to crash into them when it reached the bottom. Hit hard once and now I have a whining spindle.
