Abstract

Rotary tools configured to sand components and accommodate complex geometries thereof are provided. The rotary tools may include a rotary head and a shaft. Bristles and an abrasive material may be coupled to the abrasive material. The rotary tools may additionally include outlets configured to receive a flow of coolant to cool the rotary tool. A system configured to convert a flood coolant system to a through spindle coolant system is also provided. The system may include a hollow shaft with inlets and a redirector therein. A flow receptor may include scoops that receive coolant sprayed from a flood coolant system and direct the coolant through the inlets in the hollow shaft. Thereby, the coolant may contact the redirector and be directed downward through the hollow shaft to a rotary tool, such as the rotary tool described above.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to rotating machines, and more particularly to an apparatus configured to convert a flood coolant system to a through spindle coolant system and related rotating tools. Background technique [0002] Components used to form various devices, such as computing devices, often undergo many manufacturing operations during their production. Additive manufacturing processes add material to form parts. As an example, injection molding may be used to form the part. In contrast, subtractive manufacturing processes remove material from a workpiece or substrate to form a part. For example, material may be machined from a substrate to form a component. In certain embodiments, both additive and subtractive processes may be used to form the part, depending on the specific desired final configuration of the part. [0003] Computer numerical control (CNC) machining is one example of the type of subtractive manufacturing proce...
