Okuma America Corp. expands its line of peripheral products to enhance manufacturing systems offerings. The Okuma High-Pressure (OHP) coolant system provides variable‑flow, high‑pressure coolant delivery to Okuma machine tools. The system is designed to provide optimal chip evacuation, extended tool life, improved surface finishes and enhanced productivity for modern manufacturing operations. Its robust construction and advanced filtration make it well-suited for a wide range of tooling sizes, multiaxis lathes, multifunction machines and machining centers.

The Okuma OHP system is compatible with water‑based coolants and suitable oils, making it versatile for a wide range of shops and applications. A dirty filter alarm alerts operators when service is required, helping protect tooling and maintain consistent performance.

The OHP is built to support high‑precision machining with a powerful 8-gallon-per-minute flow capacity and 1,000 psi pressure capability. Its dual 7 × 32", 5-μm, quick-change filter bags provide optimal coolant cleanliness, while the 50‑gallon vertical reservoir and built‑in feed/supply pump support long, uninterrupted machining cycles. The system comes in a compact fooprint of 36 (l) × 28 (w) × 42" (h) with a 850-lb weight capacity.
