    Decentralised cooling

    • Use of standard tools without internal cooling
    • Saving on expensive shank grooves
    • Flushing effect optimises process reliability and surface quality

    Same tool restriction

    • Easy to integrate into existing processes
Particularly in boring processes, DirectCool displays its strengths, enabling reliable cooling and
preventing tool breakage with effective chip removal.
The new technology improves surface quality and boosts process reliability – without adjusting
existing processes. After all, the UNIQ hydraulic chucks already available feature unlimited
DirectCool compatibility. The tool restriction remains unchanged, and no specific shank grooves are necessary.

With its smart cooling channel guidance, UNIQ DirectCool is initially available for UNIQ Mill
Chucks HA and UNIQ DReaM Chucks with 4.5° geometry in diameters from 6 to 32 mm from autumn 2025.
