  • the milling tool (41) is connected via a tool holder (42) with an engine block (43) and housed with a housing (45).
  • a fan (44) is arranged, which generates an air flow from the milling tool (41) facing side of the engine block (43) to the rear of the engine block (43) and thus cools the engine.
  • the air or the air mixture present there sucked which with the arrows in there Fig. 4 is shown. Since the housing (45) forms a closed space around the milling tool (41) and the tool holder (42), the carbon dioxide-air mixture drawn in by the fan wheel (44) between the milling tool (41) and the narrow surface (120) can the plate (P) is present, the engine block (43) are effectively cooled.
  • the carbon dioxide-air mixture is discharged or sucked by the fan wheel (44) to the environment, which is indicated by the arrows in Fig. 4 is shown. If the entire milling machine (40) or the environment of the workstation of a housing (50) is housed, which includes, for example. Also, the top surfaces of the plate (P) with, from the engine block (43) exiting air mixture for adjustment defined environmental conditions are used in the environment of the workstation.
