Systems and methods for cooling a cutting disc

Abstract

A cutting system including a rotating cutting disc coupled to a cutting tool of a cutting device, and a cooling assembly for cooling the cutting disc when it is in use. The cooling assembly includes an upper covering that covers at least part of the cutting disc, and a lower base having a main slot to allow the passage of a segment of the cutting disc. A part of the lower base is configured to be supported on a workpiece. The lower base cooperates with the upper covering to form a cavity housing the cutting disc. The cooling assembly also includes cooling means that enables at least part of the cavity to be filled with a coolant, such that at least part of the cutting disc is submerged in the coolant during the cutting process, the coolant being discharged from the cavity through the main slot of the lower base.
