Abstract: A tooling assembly for a machine having an automatic tool changing system includes a tool body disposed about a rotational axis and defining an internal passage operable to flow a fluid therein. The internal passage includes an inlet, stem channel, first and second curved channels, and first and second transition portions. The inlet is configured to receive the fluid from the machine. First and second outlets are open through an exterior of the tool body. The stem channel is in fluid communication with the inlet and ends at a beginning of the first and second transition portions. The first curved channel extends from the first transition portion to the first outlet. The second curved channel extends from the second transition portion to the second outlet.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system for measuring a dynamic response of a machine. The system includes a vibration mechanism, an accelerometer, a controller and a casing. The vibration mechanism is operable to generate an excitation signal, and the accelerometer is operable to measure dynamic energy in response to the excitation signal and output a dynamic response signal indicative of the dynamic energy. The controller includes a communication interface and operates the vibration mechanism to output the excitation signal and transmit a vibration input signal based on the excitation signal by way of the communication interface. The casing houses the vibration mechanism and the controller.

Abstract: A cutting tool and method of manufacturing a tool including determining desired flowrates to cutting edges. The method includes calculating pressure drop and passage dimensions for each of an nth-number of passages to the cutting edges based on In=(Pn*Ann)/(ρn*Ln), wherein In is nth-passage flow rate, Pn is nth-passage pressure drop, Ann is nth-passage cross-sectional area raised to a power n, the power n being equal to 1 or 0.5, ρn is nth-passage resistivity, and Ln is nth-passage length. The method includes forming the nth-passages in the tool open to each cutting edge based on the nth-passage dimensions.
