2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The VIP4Tools manual must be used for applications on spindle, without control on machines for lubrication of tools and
chains.
Designed for high performance with low cost, it is distinguished by its compactness.
The system is made up of a pneumatically controlled mini-pump and the mixer base. Mini-pumps are manually adjustable in
order to cover any possible need
(0-30 mm³). The modular design of the system makes it extremely versatile; up to a maximum of 8 mixer bases can be
installed. The system can be timed by applying the pneumatic pulse generator kit, P/N 3132572 or controlling it from the
machine PLC.
