In an effort to become more sustainable in its machining practices, Seco Tools has partnered with Fusion Coolant Systems (Fusion), which offers an environmentally-friendly coolant technology that can lower the overall carbon footprint while increasing overall performance. Both companies have a goal to make machining easier and more effective for manufacturing leaders and engineers while maintaining environmental awareness, making this partnership a perfect match.

“We've had a working relationship with Fusion Coolant Systems for many years; from the inception of the technology when they developed it years ago. We've worked on multiple customer projects and had heavy interactions on the R&D side to come up with solutions that help solve customer issues. So, it really was just a natural transition to formalize this partnership,” said Rob Keenan, president of Seco Tools, North America. “It's about providing complete solutions and we feel strongly that Fusion has a state-of-the-art solution that's going to help medical customers, especially, in their medical device manufacturing processes.” 

As part of the upcoming medical-focused Inspiration through Innovation (ITI) event, both Keenan and Brian Ahlborn, CEO of Fusion Coolant Systems, will be on a virtual panel to discuss this partnership and how it can greatly benefit medical machining engineers. 

“There is so much innovation in the medical sector, including a strong migration towards additive manufacturing. Fusion’s Pure-Cut solution allows for dry, or near-dry machining while improving operating efficiencies,” said Ahlborn. “The Seco team has worked to exploit this technology in their tooling on applications that have now been running for several years in several industries. Our relationship has grown naturally, helping customers solve complex problems.”

Medical ITI 2021 will showcase collaborative solutions to common challenges in machining orthopedic parts, complemented by a seminar program addressing the big issues facing the medical manufacturing segment. Registration for Medical Inspiration through Innovation 2021 is now open. Join the virtual event April 21-22 to learn more about all that Seco Tools and Fusion Coolant Systems have in store for the future of medical manufacturing.
