Unlike common mist coolant systems, the FogBuster does not atomize coolant at the nozzle tip. Coolant is carried accurately with the air stream after leaving the nozzle and will produce a small spray pattern from several inches or more from its target. Because coolant is not atomized into a fine mist, it will not float into the surrounding shop air. With virtually all of the coolant being utilized on the part and tool, greater cooling and lubrication is achieved along with a reduction in coolant waste.
The pictures below were taken at the exact same camera settings. As you can see the difference is amazing.
The FogBuster produces a unique spray of coolant drops that are too large to float into the surrounding air.
The spray mister atomizes coolant so fine that you can literally smell it in the air within seconds after turning it on.
As a demonstration you can do in your own shop, adjust the needle valve to a very light spray, point the nozzle at a flat surface 12 to 15 inches away and watch for a few seconds the small pattern of coolant the FogBuster will produce as shown below.
In our tests the spray pattern will measure approx, 3 to 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Which is quite amazing. There is no other sprayer that can spray coolants this distance without most of the coolant floating into the shop air before reaching its target.
FogBuster offers a wide range of independent coolant and air flow adjustment, uses virtually any type of coolant, and its unique high volume, low-pressure design operates on only 10 to 20 PSI.
FogBuster’s pressurized system delivers a reliable, uninterrupted flow of coolant to the work piece. It’s instant on and off operation, and ease of adjustment, make it a real time saver.
The FogBuster is also great for spraying light oils and lubricants in any number of applications such as, metal forming, rolling, stamping or wherever you need targeted lubrication.
