The results that we have came across now utilizing this technology is
that we've increased our speed and accuracy on our first pass also on
our second pass utilizing the ten and twelve thousandths wire. With one
pass we are getting straightness's of TIR about five tenths with one
pass. Those of you in the business know that that's pretty much an
unbelievable feat when you are talking about thicknesses from one inch
to six inch. With two passes we are total indicating (inaudible),
that's one tenth per side with one trim cut, with one trim pass. We've
also done this and still maintained our reliable auto threading so
there is not a special wire that we are using like I mentioned in the
beginning. So our reliability for auto threading doesn't decrease as
some manufacturers may introduce wire for faster cutting speed but it
dramatically decreases their ability to thread the wire. This is not
the case with HEAT. We've also lowered our wire consumption by almost
fifty percent compared to our competitors. Which again those of you who
have EDM machines know the cost of wire and to save fifty percent in
wire cost is a very very big statement. We've also dramatically reduced
our trim cuts by almost a hundred percent and that's as a result of our
first cut accuracy and so there is not a need to take a large offset
trim on our trim cut. So our speed increases maybe you know it could be
double maybe triple.
