Anyone who has used an engraving machine knows that there are two types of spindles for engraving machines, one is: water-cooled spindle, and the other is: air-cooled spindle. So why do some customers use water-cooled spindles while others use air-cooled spindles? Jinan Jingwei CNC will explain to you the main differences, advantages and disadvantages of the two spindles.

Anyone who has used an engraving machine knows that there are two types of spindles for engraving machines, one is: water-cooled spindle, and the other is: air-cooled spindle. So why do some customers use water-cooled spindles while others use air-cooled spindles? Jinan Jingwei CNC will explain to you the main differences, advantages and disadvantages of the two spindles.

The main differences between the water-cooled spindle motor and the air-cooled spindle motor of the engraving machine are as follows:

1. As the name suggests, water-cooled spindle motor uses water circulation to cool the heat generated by the high-speed rotation of the spindle. This method is very effective because the temperature after circulation will not exceed 40 degrees. The air-cooled spindle motor uses a fan to dissipate heat, and its effect is definitely not as good as water cooling.

2. Noise. Water-cooled spindle motors are basically noiseless, but air-cooled spindle motors are very loud.

3. In terms of service life. Because water-cooled spindle motors require attention to maintenance, frequent water changes, or the use of industrial water coolers, their service life is much longer than that of air-cooled spindle motors.

4. Accuracy. The axial and radial runout of water-cooled spindle motors are basically below 0.003 mm, which is far inferior to air-cooled spindle motors (domestic)!

5. Ease of use. Since the water-cooled spindle needs to be connected to a water pump, a bucket is needed to hold water, and a water pipe needs to be connected. Especially in the cold winter in the north, it is more likely to freeze, which may be troublesome for some customers; while the air-cooled spindle does not have so many usage issues.

Therefore, when purchasing a machine, you must choose a machine that is more suitable for you based on your actual needs and regional conditions. It is our purpose to be able to help everyone and bring profits to everyone.
