Key Information

Attention: This will not effectively carry heat away from the workpiece being ground. For that, we recommend a mist coolant directly on your part. Rather, the platen chiller will expand the duty cycle of a rotary platen so you can grind longer without melting your rubber belt. If you have a radius platen, the chiller will keep the temperature of the platen low enough to protect the temper of the platen itself.

This is not intended to be used as a grinding surface since it is made of aluminum. A wear resistant platen should be used as the grinding surface between the belt and the chiller body. The hole spacing for mounting the platen is 6.75” and the holes are for 1/4” fasteners. We recommend using heat sink compound between the platen and this chiller to reduce resistance to heat-transfer.
