Read MoreCO2 Processer Unit
The company’s CPU (CO2 Processer Unit) provides OEMs, machine builders and equipment engineers with advanced CO2-based processing technology for cleaning, machining and thermal spray in a compact Plug-and-Spray integration module.
Read MoreVideo: Cryogenic Machining of Titanium
Through-tool liquid nitrogen turns the tool into a heat sink, extending tool life.
WatchThe 400° Difference
Cryogenic machining achieves dramatic tool life gains not by flooding the cut, but by refrigerating the tool.
Read MoreLong-Lasting Coolant Reduces Costs, Downtime
This shop provides a case in point of the substantial savings that can be realized with the proper coolant formulation. Rustlick Ultracut Pro, available from ITW Rocol North America, lasted twice as long in the sump than the shop’s previous coolant, leading to significant operating and maintenance cost savings.
