<p>This invention relates to a machining center fluid delivery system comprising a body block to be mounted on a tool holder (2) to be installed in a machining center and a driving source block (30-33) to be mounted on the machining center, and to a machining center equipped with such a fluid delivery system. The body block comprises a body member (16) connecting nozzles (17) to fluid delivery pipe (18). The fluid delivery pipe engages with the driving source block to supply fluid to the nozzles from a source external to the machining center, and transfers rotary drive from the driving source block to the body block. The driving source block drives in response to signals characteristic of the position of the machining point between the tool and the workpiece being machined, whereby the nozzles direct fluid to the machining point continuously, as the machining point moves during the machining operation.</p> |
