How to cool a jewelry mandrel with air pressure?

One of the crucial tools that every jewelry use in their work is called the mandrel. It is a cylindrical tool used to round out wire and metal and it can be made of various materials such as wood, aluminum or stainless steel and it comes in a variety of lengths and dimensions.

In the case of our client, a ring mandrel is easily one of the most useful tools for sizing, crafting, and re-shaping jewelry. Each of these mandrels is designed for one or more specialized applications in jewelry crafting.

After a short phone call with a client, our engineer understood the problem that our client has and suggested a Vortex Tube 7525 model. Besides the one we suggested to a client, all our Vortex Tube models are reliable, robust, and most durable among the large competition in this market. Thanks to our vortex tube, you can easily produce instant air, adjust the necessary temperature, it’s 100% maintenance-free, it requires no electricity or refrigerants, and it’s lightweight.

By blowing chilled air, with a Model 7525 Vortex Tube onto the mandrel, thermal expansion of the mandrel was eliminated even as temperatures rose throughout the day. Our 7525 Vortex Tube model, air consumption is 25 SCFM (708 SLPM), 1800 BTU/Hr. and 528 Watts / Hr. @ 6.9 BAR.
