    Hi all, I have a Wadkin TC80 spindle intended for my next machine build, and beyond a marketing pamphlet I have no real information, i.e.:

    *air-cooled
    *7.5kW
    *0-20,000rpm
    *30 taper
    *hydraulic tool release

    Additional info I have ascertained:

    *green
    *heavy

    I believe the machine it came off of was an Olympus.

    It has a threaded hole in the front that did not have a fitting or bolt in (just taped over) which has me wondering if it's meant to have a continuous lube feed or forced air cooling. This was the standard spindle Wadkin offered at that time and not a fancier higher load/higher precision option. The spindle seems in good condition, so I don't really want to take it apart! Maintenance requirements would be great to know. Any ideas?
