Innovation That Lives Up to the Word

Oct. 12, 2010

After doing a bit more snooping around to try to confirm the freshness of the joint project between MAS-IAS; Creare, the cryogenics experts; and the U.S. Navy, to build a titantium machining center that doesn't use tool coolant [that's what I said, it doesn't use coolant], and doubles the rate of titanium cutting [ that's in 2x ] and increases ridiculously tool life, I'm still thinking this is an important industrial innovation that actually lives up to the word.

If you disagree, I'd really like to know why.
