What if someone proposed an investment to you and said you’d be paid back in just weeks – after that, everything you earn, you can put right in your pocket? Would you jump on that pretty quickly? Well here’s an idea that can help you do just that and make your life a little easier too.

Four advantages of high pressure coolant:
Check out this video and learn about the advantages of implementing an HPC system on a vertical machining centre:
- Longer tool life
- Improved chip control
- Improved surface finishes
- Increased cutting speed (by at least 20-30 per cent)
Your payback comes from all four of these factors, but together they add up to getting ROI from your HPC in just weeks. Want a great HPC system for your CNC machines?
