Air dryer? Yes, definitely. We installed a refrigerated dryer a few years ago and that solved a lot of problems we had with both lathes and VMCs. We did have moisture traps but they just weren't good enough. Dry air solved all our problems except when we were doing heavy cuts as I mentioned earlier. I also checked with my guys; it is probably close to a year since the VF machine had a tool jam i.e since we put on the reserve tank. |
