Zusammenfassung:A milling machine can include a frame; a cutting rotor attached to the frame, the cutting rotor including a plurality of cutting bits positioned along a length of the cutting rotor; a plurality of temperature sensors positioned to determine a temperature proximate one or more of the plurality of cutting bits; a spray system coupled to the frame and including a spray bar having a plurality of nozzles configured to spray a cooling fluid on the cutting rotor; and a controller to receive the temperatures of the one or more cutting bits, the controller configured to determine whether more or less cooling fluid is needed for the cutting rotor based on the temperature proximate the one or more cutting bits.
