Method for supplying cryogenic fluid to a machining machine

A method for machining workpieces, comprising a cryogenic fluid intake in a machining zone, comprising, locating a valve on a line connecting a fluid source to a machining tool in the machining zone, the valve self-regulates a degree of opening according to a pressure required downstream thereof, the valve is located inside a cold box for implementing the cryogenic fluid and provides a fixed and adjustable pressure, and a fixed adjustable flow, to the machining tool, irrespective of the type of machining that is used, and a number of orifices and a diameter of the fluid ejection orifices in the machining tool,

• wherein, upon start-up, and between two machining operations resulting in a machining tool change, and in the disconnection and reconnection of tools at the end of a spindle, gas is purged from the line using nitrogen gas, between the cold box and the machining tool, from the cold box to the end of the spindle initially, then from the cold box to the machining tool, with the supplied gas allowing a machining tool holder to be heated and thus assist the disconnection.
