A robot system which can adjust the position of a coolant nozzle at a lower cost, that is, a robot system which comprises a robot, a robot controller which controls the operation of the robot, and a notification part which notifies the type of the workpiece which is processed by the machine tool to the robot controller. The robot controller determines the target position of the coolant nozzle with respect to the workpiece to be processed based on the type of the workpiece which is obtained from the notification part and makes the coolant nozzle move by the robot so as to place the coolant nozzle at the target position.

A method and apparatus for directing a coolant stream for use with a computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tool includes a nozzle pivotably mounted on a machine tool. The position of the nozzle is automatically adjusted using information available in the CNC machine control program and the part program (i.e. G-Code) to determine where to direct the coolant nozzle at each instant in time. Integration with the machine control program allows the coolant delivery system to be continuously adaptive to machine position. The position of the coolant delivery system is computed by algorithms according to a user selected strategy. The strategy is specified within the control language of the machine control program (i.e. G-Code). No operator programming outside of using G-Code commands to select the desired operating mode is required to direct the coolant nozzle. The user can change operating modes while the machine is running by issuing G-Code commands.
