Abstract
A programmable coolant nozzle system and method for grinding wheel machines. The system comprises a fluid manifold block that automatically or manually follows the wear of the grinding wheel, to position coolant jets tangential to the wheel surface throughout the life of the grinding wheel. The positioning is by an arcuate motion, through a parallelogram mechanism, to ensure that the coolant jets remain at the same angle to the grinding wheel surface throughout the entire range of motion.
