FH-6800 switch off Air Blast at spindle stop
Machine - MAZATECH FH-6800
Control - MAZATROL 640M
Does anyone know if there is a way to switch off the through spindle air blast when the spindle stops?
When using through spindle coolant there is an air blast at coolant stop/spindle stop. I understand there is good reason for this, but the part I am making requires lots of peck drilling and spindle/coolant stops to clear chips from the hole and a big coolant mist cloud forms and gets worse with every peck.
I have found an M code that seems like it would switch the Air Blast on but not a code to switch it off
-
M45: Air coolant blow ON(coolant stop: M09)
Ideally I'd like to program the air blast to be switched off for peck drilling and back on for normal machining but any suggestions/M codes/parameters etc... would be much appreciated! Thanks!
