Some of the technology enhancements that we have done to the machine are as follows. We took our flushing nozzle technology into a better design to help with the flow to the work piece. We have improved upon our flushing capabilities themselves doing some things to our pump systems. We have also extended the life of the carbides as a result of the HEAT technology. We wanted to run with less intervals in our carbide contact life. In our generator we've made many improvements to our generator. One would be our Belly Wizard Technology which is a mechanical and electrical wire path compensation. Meaning that we do certain things to the XY and UV to compensate for the taper or belly that you get in the part, to provide you will superior straightness. Something that years ago you may have to accomplish with four five maybe six trim cuts to get the same accuracy. We may be doing that in one cut or maybe even one cut and one trim. So it's truly a unique way of compensating the wire for straightness. And our Corner Wizard for excellent shape accuracy in corners. So there is no slow down in corners by using special algorithms to compensate for the corner error. This is again the technology that some of our competitors have but I think that Makino has refined this into a science. Our Power Wizard again you could compare it to some of our competitors' automatic power compensation but it really slows down the machine. With Makino's since we are using scales and end coaters we have superior feedback. That's standard on our machine allowing us to search for the highest speed possible and search for the most constant advance even under extreme conditions.
