Description: Developed by researcher, educator and serial entrepreneur, Dr. Steven Skerlos, Fusion’s critical patents secure the process of using supercritical carbon dioxide as a machining coolant and vehicle to deliver dry and enhanced lubrication to a cutting zone for applications demanding high lubrication and high cooling. Cooling and lubrication are achieved via single channel delivery because supercritical carbon dioxide completely dissolves lubricants. This allows for unprecedented heat removal potential and lubricity.
